There are also the backbone of the Northern Expedition, Wang Ping, Deng Zhi, Liao Hua and others.

Most of the forces in the army are almost on his side, could it be that Zhuge Liang still can't see it and doesn't know how to choose?

When the generals were drinking, a herald suddenly came over and said, "The prime minister invites the generals to come over and discuss the Northern Expedition." ”

The generals arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion and stood in turn in the hall.

Wei Yan stood at the forefront.

Ma Yan, Jiang Wei and Cao Jun, who had not been seen at the banquet before, were also in the hall.

When the two people saw it, they all looked at each other with different expressions.

Wei Yan stared at Cao Jun even more, and a cold snort came out of his nose that only he could hear, "Hmph!" Huangkou Xiaoer, Prime Minister Meng was exceptionally promoted, so he has the qualifications to stand here, if he dares to compete with me for the position of leading general, he must be good-looking. ”

Wei Yan was very sure, he felt that Zhuge Liang would definitely choose him.

After a while, Zhuge Liang appeared behind the case with a feather fan.

"According to the Malay report, Cao Wei's great Sima Cao Xiu fell for Lu Xun's fraudulent surrender plan, lost more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and was defeated and killed.

Wei Yan saw that everyone else was looking at him, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Prime Minister, this is a God-given opportunity, Sun Quan has finally done a good deed, Prime Minister quickly ordered the Northern Expedition!" We can't wait. ”

After Wei Yan finished speaking, all the generals laughed.

"In this Northern Expedition, I decided to sit in Hanzhong and dredge the grain road, so that the soldiers in front have no worries."

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he squinted at the generals.

Wei Yan, who was standing in the first place, was excited in his heart, and secretly exclaimed, "It's here...... Here it comes. ”

But after waiting for a long time, Zhuge Liang had no follow-up.

Wei Yan couldn't help but be anxious, and took the lead in reminding him: "I don't know who the prime minister wants to lead the army in front of Cao Zhen and Sima Yi?" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled after hearing this, "If Wen Chang leads the army and encounters Sima Yi, how will he deal with it?" ”

Wei Yan's breathing suddenly became heavier, he straightened his chest, and said proudly: "The prime minister is afraid of that Sima Yi, but I am not afraid, if I am allowed to lead the army, I will directly wave the army to kill him, and defeat him from the front." ”

Zhuge Liang's secret path was as expected.

This Wei Yan is okay to lead the troops as a general, but he does not have the consciousness to strategize and be a commander.

Zhuge Liang asked again: "What if Sima Yi doesn't fight you head-on, but has a deep ditch and a high base, and is dedicated to defense?" My Han supply line is obliquely long, and the Shu Road is difficult to travel, as long as it is dragged until our food is exhausted, the troops will naturally retreat, how will you stay? ”

"This ......" Wei Yan blinked, if the Governor of Cao Wei really responded like this, he would not be able to do it.

"Wenwu, what do you think?"

Zhuge Liang turned his head and asked Cao Jundao again.

"Prime Minister, there is indeed a way for the general." Cao Jun arched his hand and walked out from the second line on the right.

Wei Yan was the first in line on the left, and the first in line on the right was occupied by Ma Dai.

One of these two people is the general of Zhenbei and the other is the general of Pingbei, which is the oldest person in the Shu army.

As the newly promoted general of the expedition to the north, Cao Jun has the same serial number as them, but because of his lack of qualifications, he can only be relegated to the second place on his right hand.

"Oh!" Zhuge Liang stared at Cao Jun with interest, he had confronted him before, but he had never talked about similar topics, but wanted to hear how he responded.

Wei Yan, who was stumped by this question just now, couldn't help but prick up his ears.

He also wanted to hear what Cao Jun had to say.

The other generals also looked at Cao Jun in unison.

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

"There will be two plans at the end, one of which is called the radical method, everyone has weaknesses, Sima Yi is no exception, the end will send someone to send him a big red dress, ask him to try it on, send a hundred-year-old turtle, engrave the word Sima Yi on the turtle shell, if Sima Yi is still a man, he will not be excited."

As soon as the words fell, the other generals in the hall couldn't help but laugh in unison.

They all said secretly in their hearts, "This Cao Wenwu is really yin, if someone treats me like this, knowing that it is a plan, I can't help but kill it." ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head, "Then Sima Yi, the old minister of the three dynasties, can survive Cao Cao Cao and Cao Pi, and the law of forbearance is invincible in the world, what if your plan can't work?" ”

Cao Jun seemed to have been prepared, and added unhurriedly: "The last general still has a plan, called the Discord Plan, that Sima Yi is as forbearant as an old turtle, but the Wei lord Cao Rui and the Cao Wei court are vigilant against Sima Yi, so we only need to hand them a quick knife at the right time, and someone will come out to help us deal with Sima Yi." ”

This time, Zhuge Liang smiled.

He asked the generals, "What do you think?" ”

"The last general thinks it's possible."

"General Cao's plan may be effective."

……

In the end, Zhuge Liang specially asked Wei Yan, "Wen Chang, do you think this plan is feasible?" ”

Wei Yan saw that Cao Jun was in the limelight in front of Zhuge Liang again, and it happened that the leading generals of the Northern Expedition were undecided, so he naturally would not lose his confidence.

He glanced at Cao Jun and shouted nonchalantly: "Any conspiracy and trickery, in the face of absolute strength, has nothing to hide, and the general is not ignorant, but disdainful." ”

Zhuge Liang sighed again and said: "Although Cao Wei is fighting on both sides, he has to guard against both my Han and Dongwu, but his area and population are several times that of our side, and his absolute strength is on Cao Wei's side, not on my Han's side!" ”

Wei Yan shrugged his shoulders and was speechless for a while.

Zhuge Liang took the opportunity to announce, "I have made up my mind, I will lead the Northern Expedition in the near future, lead the Northern Expedition Governor, sit in Hanzhong, and make General Cao Wenwu the deputy governor, and have an overview of the Northern Expedition on the front line." ”

Zhuge Liang paused, deliberately observing the reactions of the generals below.

Jiang Wei had expected it before, and this time he was not shocked.

However, the other generals suddenly blew up the pot, and they all looked left and right, and exchanged heads and ears.

Especially Wei Yan is the most.

His face was almost red, and he wanted to think that the position of leading general was within reach, but he didn't expect that the prime minister would hand over that position to Cao Jun.

Although he performed brilliantly in the first Northern Expedition, his qualifications were obviously insufficient, so how could He De lead the Northern Expedition?

"Prime Minister, I'm not convinced!"

Wei Yan let out a loud roar, stopping the chatter in the hall.

He exhaled heavily, his face was red, and the green tendons on his forehead rose, if it weren't for the Prime Minister's Mansion here, I was afraid that he would have directly erupted.

Zhuge Liang sighed, waved his feather fan and said, "You guys step back first, the holy decree will be issued on the same day, go down and prepare, Wen Chang stays, I have something to say to you." ”

The generals retreated one after another with different expressions.

At the door of the hall, Ma Dai stopped Cao Jun and arched his hand to congratulate him.

When he got the news earlier, Ma Dai's shadow flashed in his heart.

If Zhuge Liang wanted to pick one person from among the generals to lead the army, only he, Wei Yan and Cao Jun would meet the conditions.

But Ma Dai knew that with Zhuge Liang's caution, it would definitely not be him.

The relationship is complex and wrong.

When his cousin Ma Chao was there, he didn't get the opportunity to lead the army alone, and now he is a big step behind Ma Chao in all aspects, and he has no chance to lead the army.

Then among the rest of the people, only Wei Yan and Cao Jun are left.

If the prime minister is interested in Wei Yan, he can give an order directly, there is no need to spread the news in advance, so as to secretly observe the reaction of the generals.

From then on, Ma Dai's shadow flashed in his heart again.

This time, Zhuge Liang directly ordered, except for Jiang Wei, he was the most calm.

He is now homeless and homeless, and almost all of his family are buried in Cao Cao's hands, and Cao Jun's lonely family is connected to the same fate, so he put aside his prejudices for the first time and sent his blessings.

Cao Jun returned the salute again and again.

Three days later, Liu Chan, the queen of the Shu Han Dynasty, issued a direct order.

Zhuge Liang was the governor of the Northern Expedition, and concurrently led the right general, acting as the prime minister.

Cao Jun was the deputy governor of the Northern Expedition, overseeing the front-line war, having the right to arbitrarily decide on the spot, and gave the Son of Heaven a sword to deter the generals.

Shang Shu ordered Li Yan to be responsible for supervising the grain and grass in the rear.

Wei Yan is a pioneer general.

From now on, the Northern Expedition will be launched.

Although Cao Jun didn't know how Zhuge Liang persuaded Wei Yan, or what conditions he promised?

In any case, after some twists and turns, Cao Jun finally achieved his goal.

He looked at the information on the task list.

[Ma Chao's revenge: If the host can fulfill Ma Chao's unfulfilled wish, he can obtain the approval of Ma Chao's remnant thoughts]

[Mission Description: Killing one person is a crime, slaughtering 10,000 people is a male, slaughtering 90,000 nine, and the party is the male among the males]

[Task 1 (Completed): Promote the Northern Expedition of the Han Dynasty, you can get the approval of Ma Chao's remnants, and open the inheritance of Ma Chao's spear technique]

[Task 2 (uncompleted): In battle, directly or indirectly kill 10,000 Cao Jun, and you can open the inheritance of Ma Chao's spear throwing technique]

[Current Kill Value: 8850]

Almost all of these more than 8,000 kill points were obtained in the Battle of the Street Pavilion.

It only takes one encounter to start the inheritance of Ma Chao's spear throwing technique.

Cao Jun licked his lips, and became excited for a while.
