Wei Ni

In the blink of an eye, it is almost late spring and March.

The fields outside Luoyang City are already a little green, indicating the vitality of the spring return to the earth, but this renewal does not appear in the Zhenyuebu military camp.

Xia Houhui has been in office for more than 20 days. Apart from allowing the soldiers to resume combat drills and confrontations, he has not brought any changes to the army. Not to mention the candidates for Sima, Zhonglang and other positions who were recommended to the temple, even the prefixes of official positions such as the Governor of 500 people and the Governor of 100 people in Zhenyueying still had "fake".

Some people are happy and some are worried about this.

Because as time goes by, the differences in basic factors such as personal charisma, command ability, whether they can convince the crowd, and changes in situation, etc., between the five-hundred-man governors and the one-hundred-man governors, can be clearly seen in the daily afternoon exercises and confrontations.

Lou Zhi was naturally one of the happy people.

His hundred men won nine consecutive battles and lost only once.

But that defeat was a glorious defeat.

Because Xia Houhui overestimated him, he actually asked Xu Yi to select a Du Bo Yin soldiers from the Xian Deng camp to fight against him, directly overthrowing his hundred-man team.

There is no other way. The first to enter the camp are all heavy infantry with well-armored armor.

Lou Zhi's centurions with thirty iron armor and seventy leather armor were able to last for less than half an hour when they were not allowed to use crossbows. It was already very good.

"Yes, you should encourage me."

These were the words of encouragement from Xia Houhui, who was watching the battle after his defeat. Lou Zhi even remembered that when Xia Houhui encouraged him, he reached out and patted him an inch below his shoulder, deliberately avoiding the part of his arm that was accidentally swept by the scabbard.

It also made him feel thick-skinned and fleshy.

There was no pain at all when being swept by the scabbard wrapped in a thick layer of cloth.

Because he feels that, if nothing unexpected happens, when the appointment of low-level military positions in Zhenyue Camp is official, he should be the governor of 500 people, right?

Different from him is Zheng Liu, the fake governor of five hundred people.

He looked sad all day long.

In the performance and confrontation, his record was five losses and two draws, and he never won once.

Even Qian Yi, who did not rely on his military exploits or resume to become the Governor of the Five Hundred, had one victory and three draws by luck!

What was even more difficult for Zheng Liu to accept was that Qian Yi's victory was his own contribution.

Ranked at the bottom of the army, Zheng Liu felt that when others saw him, there would always be an inexplicable smile on their faces. The hundred-man governors and soldiers under his command also had stinking faces all day long, and they were so resentful that they could not show their respect for five or six days in a row. Same.

Hey~
Perhaps, he will be dismissed and will leave the camp soon.

Regarding the delay in appointing low-level military personnel in Zhenyue Camp, Zheng Liu also became aware of it.

He knew that it would be a shame to be selected first and then sent back, and it would make him a laughing stock in the military.

Therefore, he could not help but slander Xia Houxian again.

It's Xia Houxian.

It was not Xia Houhui who ordered the resumption of the military confrontation.

He was previously stationed in Ping County and was a backup force for the Xiaopingjin garrison.

But after Xia Houxian learned that Leliang had returned from Huainan and was stationed in the same camp as the guerrilla camp and the Yueqi School Lieutenant, he stuffed him into the guerrilla camp based on his position; and because of his special status, Hu Benzhong General Cao Yan did not exclude him when selecting military attaches.

He had some friendship with Xia Houxian.

After learning that the guard general would not lead the army among subordinates, he could guess what Xiahou Xian asked him to do.

Just like Qian Yi was Cao Shuang's previous subordinate when he was the captain of the city gate.

But he was dissatisfied with this arrangement.

Not only did Xia Houxian make the decision without asking his opinion, but he was also worried that after Xia Houhui found out about this, he would unfortunately die for his country in a certain war.

He wasn't taking any chances.

After all, the power game between the superiors is based on the chess pieces in their hands.

Therefore, Zheng Liu, who had foreseen that he would be ridiculed by others, the only thing he could console himself with now was that at least he would not have to worry about Xia Houhui letting him lose his life passively in the future.

Therefore, should he take a small revenge on Xia Houxian for putting himself in such a situation?

The main account of the town protection department.

Xia Houhui, who was sitting behind the case, put down his pen, picked up his watch and gently blew the ink dry.

As Lou Zhi, Zheng Liu and others expected, after many days of observing and practicing battles, he had already made a final decision on the candidates for the military attachés at all levels of the Zhenyue Department, such as the Thousand-man Supervisor and the Five-hundred-man Supervisor. Show it to Emperor Cao Rui.

However, there are no Sima, Zhonglang and Hundred-man Governor on the list.

He could appoint the governor of a hundred himself, and he also had potential candidates for Sima and Zhonglang, namely Chen Tai and Huan Yu, but he still wanted to test the emperor's tone first before making an offer.

What if the emperor already had a plan in mind?

Besides, he never asked Chen Tai what he meant.

Although he has a good personal relationship with Chen Tai, Chen Tai may feel disrespected by making opinions without asking, and Chen Tai, who serves as the minister of Sanqi, may not be willing to do so~
Coincidentally, the next day is my uncle Wang Su's birthday.

I went back to have a banquet to congratulate myself, and I just asked when I passed by Chen's house. "Wen Hua, Yang Yuan, I'm going back to the mansion the next day, do you two want to go back together?"

After rolling up the dried silk book and putting it into a pocket in his sleeve, Xia Houhui asked Huan Yu and Wei Shu who were sorting out the documents in the tent.

Well, Ding Mi is not in the army.

He was busy with human relations and private matters for Xia Houhui. He only stayed for six days and left after passing on his experience in coordinating chores to Huan Yu and Wei Shu.

"Go back to General, I'll go back with you."

Huan Yu was the first to speak, and explained with a smile, "I haven't been back to my house for many days, so I just want to go back and have a look."

"General, I'd better not go back, right?"

Wei Shu, on the other hand, was a little hesitant and tried to ask for his opinion, "The general knows it. I have nothing else to do when I leave the barracks."

"Haha, Wenhua can just go back tonight."

First he nodded at Huan Yu, then looked at Wei Shu and asked, "Why don't you go back and see your father, Yang Yuan? I remember that you haven't taken the Song Yan Mo that Steward Sun prepared before, right?" "

Hearing this, Wei Shu scratched his temples and replied with some embarrassment, "General, I want to go to that later."

Is it because your father thought that you were incompetent, so you were holding your breath in your heart, thinking that you would visit him after you have achieved something in the future?

Xia Houhui, who had a vague understanding, didn't force it, "Well, it's up to you."

After saying that, he got up and went outside the tent.

It was almost time to compete in the military. Although he had already canceled the confrontation after achieving his goal, as a lieutenant general in the army, in order to gain the love and consideration of the soldiers, it was better to show his face more.

However, he is destined to have no chance today.

Just when he left the tent and headed to the school grounds, the soldiers who had first entered the camp trotted over in a hurry, "Report to General Xiahou, the Emperor is coming to camp."

After more than twenty days, the emperor is finally coming?

And it seems that today is to listen to the sun. Calculating the time, the emperor should have just come to the court. He shouldn't have brought Qin Lang, Cao Shuang and others with him like the previous two times, right?
"Yes, I understand."

After waving his hand and telling the soldiers to go away, Xiahou Hui sent someone to inform the army that today's competition was cancelled, and all the soldiers in each battalion returned to their tents and were not allowed to go out. Then he ordered Huan Yu, Wei Shu and Lu Fan to lead their troops outside the big tent. Waiting, he went to the camp gate alone to meet the imperial driver.

After walking more than a hundred steps, he saw the emperor's imperial chariot coming over under the guidance of Xu Yi. There were not many attendants and guards accompanying him, and the only official accompanying him was Cao Yan, the tiger warrior general.

"Your Majesty, General Hui, the Protector General, pays homage to Your Majesty."

Xia Houhui hurriedly walked forward to greet him, saluted and paid homage, "I cannot believe you, so please forgive me for not being able to welcome you."

"It's okay, get up."

The emperor's chariot was on its way to the main tent, and the smiling Cao Rui waved to Xiahou Hui to follow him without any courtesy, "I am very relieved that the captain has arrived today, so I came to see the Zhiquan army."

Captain's good news?

After the Prime Minister of Shu left, Sima Yi dared to use troops against Shu?
Xia Houhui, who got up and followed, was a little confused.

Fortunately, Cao Rui didn't hide anything and directly motioned with his eyes to a waiter to explain to him.

It turns out that there was internal strife when the Shu Kingdom was on strike last year, and some of the plank roads in Baoxie Valley were burned down. Therefore, this year, General Ma Dai was sent to lead troops into the flat land between Baoxie Valley and Xiie Valley (Ji Valley, today's Taibai County), with the intention of Repair the plank road in preparation for entering Guanzhong again in the future.

But Sima Yi repaired the plank road in Xiegu last year.

After learning about the military situation, he sent his general Niu Jin to lead his troops to fight, successfully repelled Ma Dai, occupied Ji Valley, and also garrisoned troops to build fortifications as outposts.

This was a small-scale war, and Wei's gains were not much.

But for the strategic level of both Wei and Shu, it was a turning point of great significance.

Because from then on, the Wei army could contain the Shu soldiers within the Bao Valley and prevent the Shu soldiers from entering the pass at will.

I don’t know how the Shu Kingdom, which labeled Wei Yan as rebellious, would feel when faced with such a result.

Of course, how Shu feels about it has nothing to do with Xia Houhui.

After hearing the story, he immediately understood that the reason why Emperor Cao Rui suddenly came over this time was because Sima Yi's report of victory made him feel that the Shu soldiers were no longer in danger, so he became more eager to attack Liaodong Gongsun, so he came to see the soldiers of the Guards Department. How's the rectification going?

"what?"

When he arrived in front of the big tent, Cao Rui, who got off the imperial chariot, saw Lu Fan and others and Bu Qu saluting. He didn't know what he was thinking of. After making a sound of surprise, he stopped and looked around before entering the big tent.

This also makes Xia Houhui, who is following every step behind, a little strange.

Isn't there anything inappropriate in my Bu Qu's salute? Or is it that the emperor had seen Huan Yu before, so he was a little surprised?

Check in and take a seat.

Emperor Cao Rui took the throne without hesitation.

That was originally Xia Houhui's place, so there were pine smoke, ink, paper and other debris in front of the case.

Cao Rui first picked up the paper and looked at it for a moment, studied the ink and tried to write a few lines of words. After saying "not bad", he suddenly asked, "Are those people outside Zhiquan's followers? But why are those recruited by Zhiquan?" , are they all young men?”

Why are you asking about this?
Is it possible that the affair of my evil son has been leaked?
