Letting Chen Sheng go in private, Zhao Shu had no intention of sleeping, and went straight to the big tent, waiting for the generals to light up. Lu Rong knew that Zhao Shu was displeased, so he had to behave in a proper manner and stay in the sleeping tent respectfully. Zhao Shu didn't blame her very much in his heart, if it was him, he would try his best to rescue such a childhood sweetheart. All that worries is how to explain to the generals that there seems to be no reason to prevaricate by letting the enemy generals go for no reason. Huan Yi, Wu Yi and other generals, Zhao Shu is still fearless, but Wei Yan is arrogant, and there are many displeasures in this expedition, and Chen Sheng is also captured by him with all his strength, once he asks, Zhao Shu really doesn't know how to deal with it.

As the sky became brighter, the generals came to the big tent one after another, and Wei Yan was also among them, with a very unhappy look on his face. Zhao Shu was afraid that everyone would ask about Chen Sheng, so he spoke first: "Xiahou Mao retreated to Nan'an, I don't know what your good plan is?" After asking, he kept looking at Wei Yan. Wei Yan didn't pay attention to it, just looked at the other side, looking like he didn't care about himself. Zhao Shu knew that he was angry in his heart, so he had to ask by name again: "What is the opinion of Wen Chang?" ”

Wei Yan fought hard that day to capture Chen Sheng, although he also admired the opponent's martial arts very much, and had the heart to persuade Zhao Shu to surrender. But if you don't surrender, you will be killed, this is the only principle for treating a tiger general like Chen Sheng, but Zhao Shu let him go without saying a word. For Wei Yan, he was naturally angry in his heart. It's just that the other party is the boss after all, and in front of the generals, Wei Yan has to save some face for him, so he can't bear it. But he didn't expect Zhao Shu to be bored, Wei Yan's temper followed, and he said coldly: "The general has always been bent on going his own way, why bother asking the general's opinion?" ”

Zhao Shu originally wanted to please Wei Yan, but he didn't expect to touch this nail, which was neither big nor small, neither soft nor hard, and knew that he was at a loss, so he had to laugh and say, "Since this is the case, then General Ben will deploy the next move." So he pointed to the map behind him and said: "Jieting is the throat of the connection between the counties of Longxi and Chang'an, and our army still has Nan'an, Longxi, Guangwei and other counties that have not been conquered. I am afraid that Cao Wei will send reinforcements from Chang'an, so I intend to send a general to lead the elite division to Jieting and build a camp on the road to block the enemy's reinforcements. I wonder which general would like to go? Without waiting for someone to come out to ask for his life, Zhao Shu said again: "Although the street pavilion is small, it has a major stake, and it must be a person who can fight and have both courage and strategy." When he spoke, he still couldn't help but look at Wei Yan, in Zhao Shu's heart, even if he didn't deliberately curry favor because of Chen Sheng's matter, Wei Yan was also a candidate for the top of the garrison street pavilion.

The good words are all said, the face has been enough, but Wei Yan just refuses to appreciate it, and still puts on a posture that cannot be saved, a pair of big eyes just look at the top of the tent, and he does not listen to Zhao Shu's words in his ears at all, Zhao Shu has always been a master who eats soft rather than hard, seeing Wei Yan's image, his heart gradually became angry, he was too lazy to say more, and asked in a deep voice: "All fair days are to ask for the revival of thieves, is there no one who can take on the heavy responsibility at this moment?" ”

Zhao Shu's words are all towards Wei Yan, and all the generals in the tent can understand it, not to mention that after Guan Xing's death, Wei Yan is a pioneer general, even if someone is willing to ask for his life, he has to hold back and not say it. Although Zhao Shu has changed his mind now, he can also hear how much dissatisfaction he has with Wei Yan from his words, and no one dares to stand up, after all, Wei Yan's temper is not easy to match. Huan Yi saw that all the generals were silent, for fear that Zhao Shu would not be able to get down the steps, and was about to go out to fight. Wang Ping, who was standing opposite, stepped forward first and said, "The last general is willing to go." ”

Wang Pingjiu was Wei Yan's deputy general in Hanzhong, and he was very clear about Wei Yan's temper. Zhao Shu had also heard about Chen Sheng's release, and knew that Wei Yan was very dissatisfied with it. Although Zhao Shu did something inappropriate, after all, as the head coach, such two or three overtures of favor can be regarded as worthy of Wei Yan. What's more, Wei Yan is still a Han general after all, even if he has grievances in his heart, he can't take military affairs as a child's play, and the important place in the street pavilion was originally supposed to be Wei Yan, who was supposed to be a national general, but he ignored it. Let Wang Ping look at it and feel a little excessive, since the battle of Hanzhong returned to Liu Bei, Wang Ping has the heart to assist the Ming Lord and make contributions. Now although the first emperor has passed away and Zhao Shu is in charge alone, the Northern Expedition is not Zhao Shu's business alone, so Wang Ping was the first to stand up when no one asked for war.

Wang Ping was under Wei Yan, and he went out to ask for his life, and he was going to walk in front of the other party, only to make Wei Yan's face even more purple, if it wasn't for the big tent of the Chinese army, everyone was in full view, and he was afraid that Wei Yan would have to fight with him face to face. Zhao Shu was grateful to Wang Ping in his heart, and he was able to stand up and give himself a long face at this time, and immediately pulled out an arrow and said: "I know that General Wang is cautious in his life, and he will definitely be able to keep the street pavilion safe." This time, Cao Wei's generals are all fighting in Wancheng, and I expect that if there are reinforcements, it must be Xu Huang leading the state army and horses. The general had worked with him, and he should be extra careful when reuniting. Wang Ping nodded and replied: "The last general dares to guarantee with his life that the street pavilion will not be lost." "Bow down, go out of the tent and go away.

Although Wang Ping is also a general, but he is not Xu Huang's enemy after all, Zhao Shu pondered for a moment, re-summoned Zhang Wei out of the ranks, and led the troops and horses of the headquarters to Liucheng, which is in the northeast of the street pavilion, and stationed there. With the backing of this elite Wudang army, it is expected that Wang Ping will be fine. The matter of the street pavilion was properly arranged, Zhao Shucai turned his eyes to look at Wei Yan, and said in his heart, Lao Tzu can still fight without you. Wei Yan's face was also quite ugly, and seeing that Zhao Shu was silent for a long time, he came out and said: "If the general has no more orders, the last general will leave." With that, he turned and left. Wei Yan's rude actions again and again made the generals feel that it was wrong for Zhao Shu to let Chen Sheng go privately, but now they feel that Wei Yan is wrong.

The guilt in Zhao Shu's heart also disappeared without a trace, so he called out to Wei Yan and said, "Although Jieting is also worry-free, it still needs the strength of the generals to conquer Nan'an and other counties." Tianshui is Nan'an on the left, Guangwei on the right, and I intend to divide the army into two roads to capture the two counties respectively. How about General Wenchang leading the military horses of his headquarters to take Guangwei County? ”

Since Xiahou Mao came to Tianshui to resist the Shu army, most of the soldiers and horses in the counties of Longxi were recruited under his command, and there were only a few defenders left in each county. Now that Xiahou Mao is in Nan'an, it is conceivable that there are not many Wei troops in Guangwei County at all, and they use cattle knives to kill chickens? To attack Guangwei County, only one member is enough, so why bother to work Wei Yan. It's just that Zhao Shu wants to use this to scare Wei Yan's prestige, and Wei Yan also knows it, and he clenched his fists and said, "The last general will obey the order." With a heavy snort, he strode out of the tent. Zhao Shu looked at the slightly stunned generals in the tent, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, the troops will attack Nan'an, and the princes can go down to prepare." ”

The generals left the account one after another, and only Huan Yi was left alone, as if he had words to say. Zhao Shusui asked, "The general has something to say?" Huan Yi nodded and said, "Today's matter, General Wei will definitely be haunted, and I am afraid that it will become more difficult to get along with in the future." Zhao Shu also nodded and said: "Wen Chang has an arrogant temperament, and I tolerate it everywhere on weekdays, but he is getting worse and worse. Today is a small warning, and I hope it will be more restrained in the future. Huan Yi smiled bitterly: "The country is easy to change, but the temperament is difficult to change." Zhao Shu could only smile helplessly at this, if Wei Yan's temper could not change, he was afraid that one day, he would still have a mess.
