Guan Yu, who was in Xiangyang, frowned slightly after hearing the news that the Son of Heaven was patrolling Yecheng, but in the end he didn't react.

To be honest, this time Guan Yu went north to attack, and he really didn't think about attacking Xuchang.

It's not that he doesn't want to welcome back the Han Emperor, it's really that Xu Du's defense is very tight, and the Xu Du Ling named Sima Yi is not easy to mess with, and Guan Yu is also afraid that Cao Pigou will jump off the wall in a hurry and do something irreparable to the Han Emperor.

After all, Cao Pi is not Cao Cao, and Guan Yu doesn't understand the bottom line and personality.

If Guan Yu still has a trace of inexplicable trust in Cao Cao, he feels that Cao Cao can't kill the emperor of the Han Dynasty, but this Cao Pi, Guan Yu can't believe it.

Therefore, Guan Yu's purpose this time is to attack Nanyang.

If possible, take back Nanyang and take Jingzhou in its entirety.

But if things are not harmonious, they must also contain the troops from Nanyang to Luoyang, so that these Cao troops do not dare to rescue Chang'an easily.

For this reason, Guan Yu is also preparing seriously.

In Chengdu, in July, Zhang Xi, Fa Zheng, and Zhuge Liang had arrived in Nanzheng, Hanzhong, and began preparations for the Northern Expedition.

Zhuge Liang is responsible for dispatching grain and grass, Fa Zheng is responsible for analyzing intelligence and making offensive strategies, and Zhang Xi's task is very simple, which is to supervise the training of the sergeants in the battalion.

It was at this time that Zhang Xi met Wei Lao Pifu again.

Although because of Deng Ai's relationship, the relationship between Zhang Xi and Wei Yan is not as stiff as before, Wei Yan at this time will not feel that Zhang Xi is a vain person.

But the relationship between the two was not good in the early days, Zhang Xi was not uncommon to Wei Yan, a stinky person, and you expect Wei Yan, an arrogant person, to take the initiative to bow to Zhang Xi, that is impossible.

Therefore, the relationship between the two is still like that, there is business to talk about, there is no business, and the two find each other annoying when they meet.

Fa Zheng just smiled at this and didn't say anything.

Fa Zheng's personality is actually not much better, if he doesn't like the person, he didn't kill you because he is now in a high position and knows how to cherish feathers.

Therefore, Fa Zheng disagreed with Zhang Xi and Wei Yan, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.

Although they are colleagues, they don't have to get along with each other, and it's okay to not get used to each other, as long as it doesn't affect normal work.

This is Fa Zheng's view on the disagreement between the two.

But Zhuge Liang couldn't stand it.

From a long-term perspective, Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Wei Yan, and Zhang Xi are all members of the same generation, and the age gap between everyone is within ten years.

In the current Liu Bei Group, the veterans are slowly aging, and among these people in the Mesozoic Era, the people who really have the ability to lead the troops in combat are Zhang Xi and Wei Yan, if these two people do not match, it will be a headache in the future.

From a short-term point of view, this is about to go on the Northern Expedition, and with the status of Wei Yan and Zhang Xi, they will definitely go out with the army, and it is not a good thing for the two to disagree.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang tried to say that the two of them should at least not put the fact that they did not agree directly on the table, at least maintain a superficial unity.

Of course, Zhuge Liang mainly persuaded Wei Yan, after all, Wei Yan's status was lower than Zhang Xi's, even if he wanted to bow his head, it should not be Zhang Xi who came to Wei Yan to bow his head.

But Wei Yan's temper, if he was willing to bow his head to Zhang Xi, he would have bowed his head when he was in Echeng, why now.

Don't look at Wei Yan who regards the second master as a role model and idol, but Wei Yan's arrogance is completely different from the arrogance of the second master.

The arrogance of the second master is aimed at those who look down on him, against those who are hostile to the forces, and for those who are in the corpse position and vegetarian to his own people who are really capable, the second master is actually not proud at all.

Didn't you see that the second master actually cooperated with Ma Liang, Fei Yi, and Zhang Xi very happily.

But Wei Yan's arrogance is arrogance, a kind of arrogance of "who you love, Lao Tzu doesn't like it, you don't like it".

The current Wei Yan admits that Zhang Xi is capable, but Wei Yan feels that he is also a capable person, so there is no need to deliberately have a good relationship with Zhang Xi.

If Zhang Xi is willing to reconcile with himself, then he can accept it, but let Wei Yan take the initiative to bow his head, don't even think about it.

The only person who can really convince Wei Yan is Liu Bei, except for Liu Bei, even if it is Zhuge Liang, Wei Yan is at most to give face and not make trouble with you in person.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang persuaded Wei Yan and took the initiative to bow his head to Zhang Xi, but Wei Yan looked like he was in the middle of the wind, which made Zhuge Liang very helpless.

Zhuge Liang knows Wei Yan's character, but Zhuge Liang also cherishes Wei Yan's talent and doesn't want Wei Yan to make his interpersonal relationship so bad.

But some people don't know Wei Yan, they don't know Wei Yan's personality and temper, and when they saw Wei Yan snubbing their idol so much, they were immediately angry.

This person's name is Yang Yi.

Yang Yi really couldn't stand Wei Yan's attitude towards Zhuge Liang, and couldn't help but say a few words about Wei Yan, but Wei Yan blew his beard at Yang Yi and glared at him, scaring Yang Yi.

Well, this time it's okay, at least Wei Yan didn't draw the knife, but Liang Zi was tied again.

Zhuge Liang is tired, he hasn't been persuaded yet, why did you offend another one?!

Yang Yi, in fact, Zhuge Liang also knows that the shortcomings of his personality and temper are also very big, and he is not much better than Wei Yan.

But Yang Yi is also the same as Wei Yan, his ability is really strong, especially in the distribution and management of logistics grain, grass and ordnance, he really helped Zhuge Liang a lot.

So, although Zhuge Liang knows that Yang Yi has a bad temper and is narrow-minded, Zhuge Liang is willing to use him for the sake of his ability.

In this Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang was in charge of the ordnance, grain and grass of the whole army, and he couldn't be busy alone, so he brought Yang Yi to help.

As a result, this Yang Yi, who couldn't hold back his words, directly offended the general of a front army.

And Wei Yanma, really, Zhuge Liang didn't know what to say.

I kindly came to persuade you, if you don't listen, forget it, why embarrass me in person?!

Yang Yi is also listening to my subordinates now, have you ever thought about my feelings when you blow his beard and stare at him like this?!

Really, that is, with Zhuge Liang, his heart is not ordinarily lenient If you were replaced by Cao Cao, you would have found a way to kill Wei Yan.

After this persuasion was fruitless, although Zhuge Liang was helpless, he also temporarily put down the matter.

After all, Zhuge Liang also has a lot of things, so many grain and grass logistics affairs to deal with, how can he have the time to stare at Wei Yan's interpersonal relationship problems every day.

As for Wei Yan, recently, he has maintained a businesslike attitude with Zhang Xi, but Wei Yan is really not used to Yang Yi.

The cause was Wei Yan's threat to Yang Yi by blowing his beard and glaring, but the flashpoint was that Wei Yan was ordered by Zhang Xi to receive food and grass in the army, but he was harassed by Yang Yi.

You said that this Yang Yi is too, let you preside over the distribution of grain and grass, you can do what you want, and obediently distribute the grain and grass to Wei Yan.

If you have to talk more, sarcastically Wei Yan doesn't know how to count, he gives more and less, and he, a leading general, doesn't even have a number in his heart.

This is Yang Yi, who is not right for you, a grain and grass officer, what are you doing with the generals in the army? !

Originally, Wei Yan was dissatisfied with himself, the Hanzhong Taishou, who wanted to come to collect the grain and grass in person, but now he was squeezed by Yang Yi again, and Wei Yan was angry, and this time he really drew his sword.

Yes, Lao Tzu doesn't know the way of mathematics, but Lao Tzu knows that military law is ruthless.

You bastard dare to give me one less grain of rice, and Lao Tzu will cut you directly!!

This is what Wei Yan said to Yang Yi, after finishing speaking, Wei Yan took his matching sword and left directly with his guards, not receiving military rations at all.

This scared Yang Yi enough, but after the scare, Yang Yi also realized that she might be in trouble, so she hurriedly reported to Zhuge Liang, and by the way, she added fuel and vinegar, and threw all the responsibility for the matter to Wei Yan.

Zhuge Liang was also speechless.

"The grain and grass in the army, each has a fixed number, Ru'an dares to make a mistake?!" Zhuge Liang first reprimanded Yang Yi.

It's okay, if you don't reprimand, it's not true, is this Yang Yi missing a string in her brain, and she doesn't know how many catties and taels she has?!

Wei Yan is the Hanzhong Taishou ordered by the King of Hanzhong, and he is a general in the army, he can blow his beard and stare at you in front of me, because he has that confidence.

But you Yang Yi is just a master in the army, just do your part, compete with the generals in the army, and have enough to eat? !

Zhuge Liang really didn't want to care about this matter, but considering that Yang Yi's ability to distribute grain and grass was really rare, it was really not easy to find someone who knew the way of mathematics in these years. Although Zhang Xi seems to be good at this, you can't let a front army calculate the amount of food and grass for you in the future, right?!

Therefore, Zhuge Liang saw Yang Yi's rare ability, so he had to wipe Yang Yi's ass and go to Zhang Xi's military tent in person, on the one hand, explain a little, and on the other hand, personally send food to Zhang Xi.

Although Yang Yi targeted Wei Yan this time, what was delayed was the daily drills in Zhang Xi's camp, and this time Yang Yi offended two people at one time.

To put it mildly, with Zhang Xi's status, if he really wants to target Yang Yi and have to hold Yang Yi responsible, Zhuge Liang can't say anything.

And Zhuge Liang vaguely remembers, it seems that Yang Yi also offended Zhang Xi, and that was when Zhang Xi was the Taishou of Badong County. I hope that kid doesn't hold a grudge so much.
