Chapter 845 - Convenient with others, convenient with yourself
"What's the matter?" Li Feng was very vigilant, for fear of being surrounded by Wei Ba.
"To conquer Liaodong, you must not only have a large number of warships, but also have enough cavalry." Wei Ba said slowly: "Therefore, we must prepare at least 10,000 cavalry, and we must also have generals who are proficient in cavalry warfare." Otherwise, even if we land in Liaodong, we will not be able to achieve a decisive victory. ”
Li Feng's heart was cold, and the excitement just now suddenly disappeared. 10,000 cavalry? Who else can have such strength now besides Zhuge Liang? He glanced at Wei Ba and suddenly understood that he wanted his father Wei Yan to command the cavalry. Wei Yan's subordinates didn't happen to have 10,000 Xiliang Jing horses.
"General Lingzun Zhenxi is a suitable candidate." Li Feng said half-truthfully: "What does the general think? ”
Wei Ba smiled meaningfully: "Young General, if you can trick your father into Liaodong, not only will I be grateful, but even the general will breathe a sigh of relief." ”
Li Feng didn't understand what it meant for a while, and after a while, he came to his senses, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, pointing at Wei Ba, wanting to laugh, but he didn't laugh, but there was a smile in his eyes that couldn't be hidden: "Wei Ziyu, you...... It's too cunning, not only to set me up, but also to set up Ling Zun. ”
Wei Ba shrugged his shoulders and looked helpless: "I can't help it, if I want to help the general succeed, I have to make this decision." As a son of man, it is difficult for me to come forward, but it is better for the young general to propose this. Major General, help and reciprocity, don't you say? ”
Li Feng laughed evilly: "I'll think about it." ”
Wei Ba arched his hand: "The young general has to hurry, time waits for no one." ”
Li Feng nodded knowingly. He knows. This incident meant far more to their father and son than to Wei Ba's father and son. If Wei Yan is not transferred from Chengdu, Wei Ba will not be able to play a role, Wei Ba will not be able to play a role, and Lao Tzu Li Yan will have no chance of winning in the face of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang. In the final analysis, this matter is still for the sake of their father and son.
I have to say that although Wei Ba's idea is a bit damaged, it is a good way to transfer Wei Yan from Chengdu. With Wei Yan's belligerent temper, how could he let it go if he had such a chance.
From another point of view, if there is Wei Yan, a strong man who will help. The war in Liaodong is a little more certain. The strongest sailor in the world. The strongest Xiliang elite cavalry in the world, coupled with the invincible armament created by Wei Ba, if nothing else, not only Gongsun Yuan will bow down. Even Cao Rui didn't dare to take it lightly.
What a haode opportunity this is.
Li Feng began to ponder. How can I convince my father Li Yan to agree to this jihua.
When Li Feng wanted to get into it. Wei Ba, Fu Xing and others pushed the cup and changed the lamp and talked about the future. Xiangyang sailors haven't fought any big battles over the years, when Li Yan took Nanyang. At the beginning, they were still very important, but later, when the army surrounded Wancheng, the sailors became a baggage battalion, which could only help transport ordnance, grain and grass, and watched the army of foot soldiers break through Wancheng, and then fight in Kunyang, and even fight success, their hearts are like a hundred claws scratching their hearts, not to mention how uncomfortable they are.
But Wei Ba still refused to let them go. Last year, the three-way army attacked Wu, and the sailors sailed thousands of miles to attack Wu County, and made miraculous achievements. However, the meritorious sailor is the newly established Jiaozhou Sailor, and the people who command the troops are the little-known Xiahou Xuan and Zhuge Dan, or the Wei people, which is tantamount to a slap in the face of Feng Jin and others, who claim to be the best in the world in water warfare.
When the Jiaozhou Navy Division conquered the Yuzhang Shipyard, Feng Jin and Fu Xing sat together, drank all night, and lamented their fate. In these years, only by following Wei Ba can there be a chance to fight, and only by following Wei Ba can there be a chance to win the battle. Without the warship built by Wei Ba, can the two newcomers of Xiahou Xuan and Zhuge Dan win the battle? With such a powerful warship, even a fool can win. If they were to command the Jiaozhou Water Division, they would guarantee that they would fight a hundred times better than Xiahou Xuan.
This is fate, who made Xiahou Xuan Wei Ba's brother-in-law, and now they can only follow Li Feng, an idiot.
Envy, jealousy and hatred are like a seed that has long taken root in their hearts, almost growing into a towering tree, to be poked out of their throats. Now Wei Ba proposes to gather the Jiaozhou Naval Division and the Xiangyang Naval Division, and then coerce the Wu National Naval Division to expedition to Liaodong, such a magnificent Jihua, how can they be willing to stay out of the matter?
If this opportunity is missed, they will only be able to wash their faces with tears and regret for the rest of their lives.
Therefore, they are very enthusiastic about this magnificent jihua, and they make suggestions one by one, and strive to make this jihua design more perfect and impeccable.
Wei Ba stayed in Gangneung for three days. In the past three days, Li Feng and the others almost never got off the boat, discussing this jihua day and night, Zuihou got a thick jihua book, which detailed the materials that need to be prepared, the personnel to be mobilized, the problems that may be encountered and the solutions, the emperor nearly 50,000 words, and nearly 300 charts.
When Wei Ba Zuihou took out the draft of the Jihua book, everyone was stunned, they didn't expect that Zuihou's achievements would be so rich, and they actually completed such a thorough Jihua in just three days.
The only ones who are really prepared for this are probably Wei Ba and Fa Miao, because this is their jihua in the first place. Before that, they had been preparing for months, and the ideas that seemed to be put forward were well thought out. The reason why it is only taken out now, and it is taken out in the way of collective wisdom, is just to unite more people, and to push Li Feng to the forefront.
Now, on the cover of this thick combat jihua book, Li Feng's name is prominently listed first, followed by a long list of names, including almost all the important members of the Jingxiang martial arts. With this list alone, no one dares to despise this jihua, otherwise it will be contempt for the entire Jingxiang martial arts.
Wei Ba said goodbye to Li Feng, Feng Jin and others, and went against the tide with their ardent hopes.
……
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shangyuan Festival, Liao Li returned to Chengdu in a beautiful manner.
After all, he has not appeared in front of the public in Chengdu for more than ten years, and since he was demoted to Wenshan, he has disappeared from the Shu Han court. The last time he received Wei Ba's invitation to rush to Wuling from Wenshan, he had a short stay in Chengdu, but at that time he was still a cloth cloth who had just regained his freedom, and he had no face to show up in front of his former colleagues, so he could only pass by quietly, so as not to be seen by those who had been humiliated by him.
Ten years later, he can finally appear in Chengdu with dignity. This time, he came with a thunderstorm. Before anyone arrived in Chengdu, the rumor had already spread to Chengdu.
The reason is very simple, before this, the Zhennan general Wei Ba's song had been sent to Chengdu in an expedited manner of six hundred miles.
Wei Ba's attitude is very clear, Liao Li has a good way to govern Jiaozhou, and his talents are outstanding, and he should be promoted. He didn't say clearly what should be promoted, but his meaning was very clear, Liao Li was a talent who was promoted by the first emperor back then, enough to compare with Zhuge Cheng, and when Prime Minister Zhuge was seriously ill and unable to govern, Liao Li should be asked to take on more important responsibilities and share worries for Zhuge Cheng.
This is simply the meaning of letting Liao Li replace Zhuge Liang as prime minister.
If someone else said this, he would probably be laughed at by others, but Wei Ba said this sentence with a reasonable attitude, and no one could help but consider it seriously. Although Wei Ba's official position is not very high, he is only the Zhennan general of the Four Towns, but his influence is enough to compete with the general Li Yan and the prime minister Zhuge Liang, which is incomparable to the other three generals at the same level. Everyone knows that if it weren't for his father Wei Yan was just a general in Zhenxi, and he himself was too young, just based on his military exploits, he would be at least a chariot cavalry general now, and he could even be a hussar general. For various reasons, the imperial court has been suppressing his official position, and he should be compensated. Liao Li is his most powerful help, he recommended Liao Li to be a high-ranking official, who dares to be a joke?
The first to react was the general Li Yan. For Li Yan, Liao Li is not in charge of the army, it will not involve military power, there is no threat to the General's Mansion, he returned to Chengdu to take office, and the most affected is the Prime Minister's Mansion, which has no impact on him Li Yan, and can also close the relationship with Wei Ba, why not? From another point of view, it is also a good choice to pull talents like Liao Li away from Wei Ba's side.
Therefore, Li Yan sent a very grand welcome team, and he almost came to greet him in person.
Ma Jian also came. Liao Li is a native of Wuling, and he is very conceited, his popularity is not good, and his relationship with Jingxiang is average. Ma Tan came to greet him, which was equivalent to accepting him on behalf of the Jingxiang family. Prior to this, Wei Ba, as a member of the Jingxiang faction, had already given Liao Li enough attention, and if the Jingxiang faction rejected Liao Li, it would be tantamount to not giving Wei Ba face, Ma Jian was a smart person, he would not do such a stupid thing.
The situation in the Prime Minister's Mansion is the most embarrassing. Liao Li came back this time, obviously to compete for power with the Prime Minister's Mansion, and most of the people he criticized back then were also from the Prime Minister's Mansion, such as Guo Youzhi, Wang Lian and others, including Xiang Lang, Wen Gong and other highly qualified old people, all of whom Liao Li looked down on, and now that Liao Li is returning in a high-profile manner, they will come to greet them, and if they don't get it right, they will be humiliated by Liao Li, a madman, in person, if they don't come, it seems that the Prime Minister's Mansion is not measured, so they have been entangled for a long time, and Zuihou is still from Jiang Wan, the most good-tempered old man.
Seeing Jiang Wan, Liao Li looked at him for a long time, and Zuihou said: "Gongyan, the prime minister is seriously ill because you are incompetent." ”
The corners of Jiang Wan's mouth twitched, and he smiled reluctantly, pretending not to hear.
Liao Li waved his sleeves: "Where is the prime minister, I want to see him." You can't understand my opinion, only the prime minister can understand. ”
Jiang Wan sighed secretly and muttered for a moment: "The prime minister is still in the palace." ”
Liao Li frowned slightly: "The illness is not well yet?" ”
Jiang Wan shook his head, worried. Liao Lilai is not good, and there is really no one in the Prime Minister's Mansion who can deal with him, so he can only ask the Prime Minister to come out in person. But the prime minister is not in good health, can he have the physical strength to fight him? …… (To be continued......)
