Chapter 57
Although Wei Yan was shocked, it wasn't that he couldn't handle things and couldn't take responsibility.

On the contrary, he has enough ambition and ambition, but suffers from a humble background and has no room to display it.

Now that he has been promoted to a position that he never dared to think about in the past, Wei Yan was immediately overjoyed, and bowed down again: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the general will definitely live up to your great love!"

Liu Bei stepped forward to help him up personally: "Mr. Wen, Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou, and the responsibility is heavy. Let me ask you, if Cao Cao leads troops to come, how will you deal with it?"

Wei Yan's black and red face became even redder, his eyes sparkled, and he waved his big hand and said, "If Cao Cao comes from all over the world, please reject it for the king. If a crowd of [-] people come, please swallow it for the king!"

Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and he immediately laughed loudly: "What Wen Zhang said really wins my heart!"

Liu Chan looked at Lao Liu a little speechlessly, but he seemed happy. In the past few days, Lao Liu probably smiled more than his entire life.

However, Wei Yan's words are indeed for Lao Liu's mind. If you are entrusted with such an important task, if you play humility at this time, you will not like it with Lao Liu's temper.

Of course, when Lao Liu asked you how to defend yourself, you can't pass the test just by blowing a loud brilliance.

After that, Wei Yan talked about his method of defending Hanzhong.

It's actually very simple, just one word, block.

Wei Yan planned to set up strongholds and fortifications at the exits of important roads entering Hanzhong in the north, and then send troops to guard them to block the enemy from entering the Hanzhong Plain.

Gone.

It's that simple.

It's a very stupid way in the style of a warrior.

But it was such a stupid way, Zhuge Liang and Fazheng nodded again and again, with expressions of admiration on their brows.

The more stupid the method, the lower the requirements for all links, and the less prone to mistakes.

The passages into Hanzhong, whether it is Baoxie Road, Ji Valley, Ziwu Valley, etc., are all narrow and long passages, and the army cannot be arranged at all.

As long as Cao Wei is not allowed to enter the Hanzhong Plain, the cavalry they are proud of will be useless at all.

If you come from all over the world, you will reject it. This is not entirely bragging.

As long as the logistics are guaranteed, no matter how many Cao Cao's troops are, and the mountains are high and the roads are narrow, there are only a few people who can reach the front.

As for swallowing Cao Wei's [-] soldiers...

It's not about swallowing it in a wild battle.

If Boss Cao really brought 10 soldiers to forcefully send them away, and was willing to send all [-] soldiers into Wei Yanbu's meat grinder and finely chop them into simmered meat...that would be the military merit of sending Wei Yan for nothing.

Of course, it's impossible for Boss Cao to do such a stupid thing.

After talking about the specific defense methods, Liu Bei was even happier, and immediately made a decision, and Wei Yan's promotion was settled within a glass of wine.

Liu Chan admitted that Lao Liu has always done a good job in discovering talents and daring to employ newcomers.

I knew this was a usable talent because I had insight into history in advance.

But Old Liu couldn't predict the future. To be able to spot generals and handsome talents among low-level officers from among so many people, he must always pay attention to this aspect and spend a lot of energy on weekdays.

You also need to have the knowledge of people.

But after Wei Yan's promotion, some people are not happy.

Old Liu just went back to his seat and sat down, when Mr. Zhang came over with a wine cup.

"Brother, but I lost to that little Cao Xiu this time, so elder brother thinks I can't hold this Hanzhong?" Zhang Fei squatted next to Old Liu, angrily said, a little aggrieved in his words.

The second elder brother Guan Yu guards the important area of ​​Jingzhou, and now that he has taken Hanzhong, it should be the third brother Zhang Fei to guard, isn't this a matter of course?

Not only Zhang Fei thinks so, but almost all high-level executives think so.

No one expected that Lao Liu would directly mention a Yamen general to this position, and he was relieved to hand over such an important position in Hanzhong to him.

However, Zhang Fei's complaints are complaints, but he deliberately lowered his voice.

He didn't want his elder brother to come to power at this time.

Lao Liu caught a glimpse of Zhang Fei squatting there, looking like a pissed daughter-in-law, and said helplessly: "You, you, at this age, are still acting like a child. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. You have neither violated the general order nor There is nothing wrong with drinking, so what am I blaming you for!"

Zhang Fei tilted his head: "Hmph, don't blame me, why don't you let me guard Hanzhong?"

This made Liu Chan amused, and he hadn't seen Uncle San like this for many years.

"My brother has other arrangements for you. I want to send you to guard Langzhong."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Zhang turned his eyes and said still: "Langzhong small land, there is something to guard, I don't want to go."

"You!" Lao Liu was about to be impatient, but was stopped by Zhuge Liang beside him.

Zhuge Liang persuaded with a smile: "The three generals only know that Langzhong is small, but do you know that Langzhong is heavier than Hanzhong?"

Zhang Fei glanced at Zhuge Liang vigilantly: "Army, what are you going to say? If you use words to deceive me, I will ask the army to discuss it afterwards."

There is no way, I have been fooled too many times before, and Mr. Zhang must be careful about what he says to Zhuge Liang.

"Hehehe." Zhuge Liang tapped Zhang Fei with his feather fan, "How could Liang deceive you. Yide doesn't know that Langzhong leads directly to Hanzhong in the north, and is adjacent to the Jialing River. From the west, you can go upstream and pass through Chengdu.

"It extends in all directions, and Yide can send troops to rescue wherever there is danger. Moreover, the terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it can be said to be the last gateway in the land of Bashu."

Zhang Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this, but Zhuge Liang stopped on purpose and took a sip of his wine.

"Military Master, keep talking!" Mr. Zhang walked over and snatched Zhuge Liang's wine bowl.

Zhuge Liang turned his head and looked at Liu Bei, both of them laughed.

Liu Chan, who was watching from the side, rubbed his temples, third uncle, you bit the hook again!
The third uncle is not stupid, but once faced with someone close to him, he is unwilling to use his brain.

"Say it!"

Seeing that the fire was coming, Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Hasn't Liang already made it very clear? Such a strategically important place is so close to Chengdu, how can my lord trust it to outsiders? You must rely on the three generals to guard it, so I can rest assured. "

Lore!

Liu Chan looked at the third uncle who was smiling, as if seeing the blood on his head being emptied by Zhuge Liang's words...

"Yes, third uncle, you are close to Chengdu, so it's convenient for me to give you this aged wine, isn't it?"

That being the case, it's better to make up for it yourself.

He has to thank us too.

[Zhang Fei favorability +5]

"That's a good thing, Third Uncle, thank you in advance, and Ah Dou has to count on what he says."

you see.

Several people burst into laughter again.

During the banquet, where the excitement came, Liu Bei asked everyone to add to the fun.

Zhuge Liang stroked a qin, and the melody became cheerful and melodious after the excitement, just like the joy of victory after a war.

Everyone cheered and praised.

After that, Ma Chao didn't know if he was influenced by Liu Chan's words, so he swung his sword uncharacteristically.

Ma Chao's swordsmanship is extraordinary, and this sword dance is simple and majestic, and it also reveals the chill of fighting on the battlefield, which naturally attracted a lot of applause.

Unexpectedly, after he finished dancing, he walked up to Liu Chan.

"All the generals are gathered here today, why don't the prince come to add to the fun?"

Liu Chan looked at Ma Chao in surprise. His face was rosy after drinking, and although his eyes were still resentful and lonely, they were much more...human.

"Okay!" After a few glasses of wine, Liu Chan, who was above him, did his part, "Bring the drum!"

Liu Chan, who was so hot from drinking, took off the cumbersome dress coat on his body, took off the shirt completely, and simply tied it around his waist.

Liu Chan's upper body showed strong muscles, and there was a faint scar on his right shoulder that was not too conspicuous.

Such a bold and unrestrained style also attracted a burst of applause from the warriors at the banquet.

After the waiter brought the drum, Liu Chan raised the drumstick with both hands, and the field gradually became quiet.

The drumstick fell suddenly.

tom!
Tom Tom!

"The wind is blowing~ the clouds are flying!"

Liu Chan beat the drums to compose a song, and he chose the "Great Wind Song" that is also available in later generations, and it is not against the harmony to sing it at this time.

His voice-changing period has not yet ended, and his timbre is really not good.

But it was hard to hide the pride that was driven by alcohol.

"Vega Hai Nei ~ Return to my hometown!"

The other generals were infected and got up one after another, either singing to each other, or dancing after hearing the song.

The rain began to fall from the sky, which could not extinguish the bonfire, let alone the fire in everyone's hearts.

"Andre Warriors~ Guard the Quartet!"

Zhuge Liang smiled and looked at Liu Chan who was wanton and unrestrained on the field, and said softly to Liu Bei beside him: "My lord, Mr. Liang Guan does not stick to trifles, his mind is extraordinary, and he has the legacy of our ancestors."

Old Liu said lightly: "Gaozu? He is still far behind."

Having said that, it's just...Zhuge Liang looked at the corners of Lao Liu's raised mouth and his hands secretly beating time on the table, and smiled without saying a word.

After a song, there was thunderous cheers.

Liu Chan, who was a little dizzy from drinking, was lifted up and thrown high by everyone, and he became even more dizzy...

But Lao Liu sighed: "In such a grand scene, it would be even better if Yun Chang was around, but I don't know what's going on with him."

This request is a bit difficult for Guan Erye who is far away in Jingzhou.

The weather has entered the rainy season, and the water level of the river is gradually rising. Guan Erye has been a bit busy recently...

 Thanks to the boss of "Falsely accusing the middleman" for 500 dots, and the boss of "Book Friends 20210920003856444" for 100 dots. The two invested in the Jihan Armed Group. This time, the dots will be included in Liu Chan's private small treasury. Thank you for your support~
