Wei Wuhou

Chapter 591: Taking Retreat as Advance 2
　It was not long before noon, although a group of captains followed Wei Wuji's wishes and came to the Lingbei Camp.

But because of Wu Mingyan's strict order, these people are still unable to enter the military tent to discuss matters, so they can only complain outside the camp one by one.

Wei Wuji was sitting with Wu Mingyan at this time, both of them took the lead, but this time it was Wu Mingyan who sat in the middle.

Although Wei Wuji did not have a big advantage among the participants, he was not afraid at this time. If Wu Mingyan really wanted to suppress Chen Zhan's matter, then everyone would have to tear their faces apart.

At that time, Wei Wuji only needs to give an order, and those officers who are full of resentment outside can give Wu Mingyan a group of advice.

After everyone arrived, Wu Mingyan spoke to the people below, but what he said was that Marquis Wei had appointed him to be the chief general.

This is a common method, just use Marquis Wei to give him a platform.

Then, Wu Mingyan talked about the fight against the Huns before, first criticizing Chen Wanyun's incompetence, and then praising the contributions of everyone present.

It can be said that Wu Mingyan is well versed in the way of officialdom, and he put all the blame on the Huns and Chen Wanyun, and put all the credit on these people in power present here.

And at this moment, a scene that surprised Wei Wuji happened!

I only heard Wu Mingyan say: "There are countless brave men in the army, but there are countless outstanding ones..."

Immediately, Wu Mingyan looked at Wei Wuji, and said: "For example, the young master has approached this general earlier, saying that his captain, Chen Zhan...has outstanding military exploits and must be rewarded!"

"Afterwards, I inquired around and found out that this Captain Chen Zhan...is really heroic. Since it is the request of the young master, how can I not agree?"

"May I ask all of you here, is there anyone who thinks he is stronger than Captain Chen Zhan?" Wu Mingyan asked, scanning the crowd.

Hearing this, Wei Wuji's eyes twitched, this old man is really not a vegetarian, and he can find opportunities to make a difference.

Although more than half of the first-class captains here are from the aristocratic lineage, many of them also follow Wei Wuji.

Now that Wu Mingyan asks this question, these people can't help but have some thoughts in their hearts, after all... people's hearts are unpredictable.

But Wei Wuji has no other way at this time, at least he can't do anything at this time, he can only explain to everyone later.

Fortunately, in the previous battle with the Huns, the troops inside the Great Wall did not fight very well, so Chen Zhan himself still had the confidence to lead the way.

At this time, naturally, no one below said much, after all, this was Wei Wuji's proposal, and General Zhu Guo seemed to agree, no one would come out to make trouble before seeing the situation clearly.

Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Wu Mingyan continued: "The young master asked Chen Zhan to be the general of the original Xiangxun's subordinates. This also reminded me that since General Xiangxun died in the country, no one under his subordinates has taken up the post!"

"That's why... this general also decided that I would like to invite you... to be promoted to Chen Yu's deputy general and Liang to become a general!" Wu Mingyan said seriously.

Having said this, Wu Mingyan turned his head to look at Wei Wuji again, and asked, "What do you think, my lord?"

Wu Mingyan's attitude can be said to be very low, so low that Wei Wuji himself wonders if there is a fraud here.

But Wu Mingyan's intentions were also very obvious. Since he promoted Chen Zhan to control the military power, he could also promote that Liang Cheng's officer to firmly suppress Chen Zhan.

Wei Wuji didn't care who Liang Cheng was. If he didn't expect it, he must be a member of the Wu'an family, otherwise such a good thing would not be his turn.

Now that he has helped Chen Zhan sit in the position of lieutenant general, he should rely on his own ability and skill to fight for the following things. After all, Wei Wuji is not a nanny for Chen Zhan.

Therefore, Wei Wuji smiled and said: "What General Zhu Guo said is very true, Wuji will have no objection!"

Wu Mingyan also laughed, then stroked his palms and said, "Okay, that's the deal!"

For a moment, the two on the main seat seemed to be working closely together as if they were best friends.

As simple as that, the chief general and deputy general of Xiang Xun's troops were decided.

Originally, Wei Wuji thought that there would be a big fight this time, but Wu Mingyan's way of handling it made his clenched fists punch into the air.

Now that this matter has been settled, the following matters are irrelevant to Wei Wuji. No matter what tricks Wu Mingyan plays, as long as he is present, there is no fear at all.

…………

The military discussion ended soon, and Wei Wuji left the Lingbei camp with a fairly satisfied mood.

Now that Wu Mingyan has arrived, he naturally has to find a place for himself.But this time Wei Wuji followed Yuan Ming to visit his barracks.

To be honest, although it has been a long time to master the Lingbei Camp, Wei Wuji has never visited each camp, so this time he will follow along to have a look, and show his face in front of the "fans" by the way.

After Wei Wuji and others left, Chen Yu and other family generals followed Wu Mingyan, presumably discussing something.

"General, is this really inevitable?" At this time, Chen Yu still couldn't believe it.

Walking in front, Wu Mingyan also sighed: "Last year when the barbarian invaded the frontier, the surname Xu suggested to the king that Wei Wuji be promoted to the title of king!"

"This matter was suppressed under the obstruction of various forces... But this matter is very dissatisfied in the hearts of the people below!"

Looking at Chen Yu and the others, Wu Mingyan continued: "You only know that Wei Wuji's reputation is quite high in the Lingbei camp... But you don't know that in the Wu'an camp, in the Changping camp, and even in the Xiguan camp, Wei Wuji's reputation is quite high... Someone is talking about his achievements!"

"Now Wei Wuji has defeated the Xiongnu and rescued the people of Yanshan Mountain from fire and water. Even the left general of the Xiongnu and even his Shanyu have all died in his hands... This son is going to be successful, and our resistance now is of no avail!" Wu Mingyan said with a face There is a worry color on it.

But at this moment, Chen Yu said indignantly: "It is true that Wei Wuji has made great achievements, but we fought bravely inside the Great Wall, and Lao Xiang even took his life in it... Wei Wuji is not alone in driving out the Xiongnu of!"

Chen Yu's words resonated with the rest of the generals, and they all followed suit, talking about their achievements.

Looking at these people, Wu Mingyan felt a little bit like he hated iron but not steel, so he reprimanded him: "Have you said enough?"

Only then did everyone quiet down, but the hatred for Wei Wuji on their faces deepened a bit.

This is actually one of Wu Mingyan's goals. In order to unite everyone, he must first establish a common enemy for them.

Immediately, Wu Mingyan said again: "My lords, even if Wei Wuji is listed as a lord, so what? The title is just a false name, and the power in his hands is real!"

"Don't you think that our aristocratic family exists by relying on the titles we control? No...it depends on the power in our hands!" Wu Mingyan said firmly.

Everyone agrees with this statement.

Afterwards, I heard Wu Mingyan continue: "You only thought that Wei Wuji was promoted to the title of emperor, but you forgot, what happened after he was promoted to the title of emperor?"

"Do you think that if he goes to Wu'an to be sealed, he can come back?" Wu Mingyan sneered.

At this time, everyone suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. It turned out that General Zhu Guo was not worried about Wei Wuji's appointment as the king, and he had already made up his mind.

At this time, they naturally also understood that if Wei Wuji really returned to Wu'an to be sealed, then Wu'an would be his big prison.

At this moment, Wu Mingyan said, "Where is Liang Cheng?"

Immediately after, someone responded: "The end is here!"

"Promoting you to be a general is not only the meaning of the general, but also the meaning of the princes of Wu'an. Don't let everyone down!" Wu Mingyan said solemnly

Liang Cheng naturally understood what the so-called "don't disappoint" meant, and now the family's glory is all tied to him, so he immediately said: "The general understands, and he will definitely not let that Chen Zhanyu become bigger in the army!"
