Every time the Wei thieves made a new move, the prime minister would always attribute the blame to Feng Yong, which made Wei Yan very unhappy.

 But he resisted and said:

“Prime Minister, although I know that Feng Mingwen is indeed capable, he is thousands of miles away now. What does he have to do with the current battle situation?”

“If the Prime Minister really blames Feng Mingwen for everything that the Wei thieves have done, then what’s the point of the army’s officers fighting to the death in front of the formation?”

The Prime Minister frowned and before he spoke, Yang Yi, who had always been at odds with Wei Yan, actually stood up:

“I know that Prime Minister Yi Zhi always attaches great importance to Feng Mingwen, but this time to attack the bandits, the Hanzhong army numbered 100,000, and the Liangzhou army was only a partial force.”

"The Prime Minister's words clearly mean that the large army has no merit, but the partial divisions have merit. If these words are really spread, the officers and soldiers in the army will probably complain, saying that the Prime Minister is unfair!"

Seeing that the two people who were incompatible with water and fire actually stood together in an extremely rare situation, the Prime Minister was a little silent:

How great would it be if the two of you could work together to prosper the Han Dynasty like you do now?

Except for Zhuge Liang, Wei Yan and Yang Yi can be regarded as having the highest status and the most senior qualifications in the army.

The two of them stood up to speak together, but most of the people below kept silent.

 Guan Xing is Feng Mingwen’s brother-in-law, and Zhang Bao is also Feng Mingwen’s brother-in-law. Because their interests are related, the two of them must not come forward at this time.

 Otherwise, there is a suspicion of partiality.

 As for Meng Yan, the Tiger-Stepping Supervisor, there is no need to say more.

 First, he had a working relationship with Feng Guiwang Yuexun.

 Secondly, whether in Yuexun or other southern counties, his people have to rely on Xinghanhui for food, which can be regarded as a related interest.

 The most important thing is that his identity is somewhat sensitive, so he naturally dares not to speak out.

The Prime Minister did not answer the two men's words, but just glanced at the tent.

After a period of eerie silence, someone finally couldn't hold it in anymore, stood up and said loudly:

"The Prime Minister has always been fair. Those who have done meritorious service must be rewarded even if they are enemies, and those who have done wrong must be punished even if they are relatives. How can the generals in the army complain? When has anyone ever said that the Prime Minister is unfair?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked up.

This person is none other than Wu Yi’s younger brother, Wu Ban.

This time during the Northern Expedition, Wu Yi stayed in the rear of Jincheng, and only Wu Ban led the Jincheng troops.

 At the Battle of Longyou, Feng Yong sent an engineering battalion to help the Wu brothers capture Xiagui and Linwei, and the two sides were considered friends.

 In addition, Wu Ban was known in Shu for his boldness and his chivalrous heart.

Over the years, all knights all over the world have said: If you don’t know Feng Langjun, it’s useless to call him a hero.

 Hence, Wu Ban had long been interested in making friends with Feng Jishi.

More importantly, he is the brother of the Empress Dowager of the Han family and a real relative. Naturally, he understands the royal family's attitude towards Feng Jishi better than others.

To be disrespectful, as long as Governor Feng doesn’t make any big mistakes, he will be better than the Prime Minister.

The person the emperor relies on most is probably not Jiang Wan, the prime minister's nominal successor, but Feng Mingwen, who is actually a relative.

 Wu Ban has a special status. On the surface, he does not have much interest in Feng Yong, and he does not have much interaction with Wei Yan and Yang Yi on weekdays.

 So he naturally doesn’t have so many worries.

 Since I don’t rely on you two for my livelihood, why should I be afraid of you?

 The important ministers of the imperial court in the future will be young and promising, about the same age as the emperor. If you don’t support them now, when will you wait?

“The Prime Minister has always planned before taking action, and he has many things to look forward to, so what he says now must be reasonable.”

“As for the actions of the Wei thieves, whether they were influenced by Feng Mingwen or not can be confirmed after the war, so why keep talking about it now?”

Wu Ban’s words were ingenious in that he openly supported the Prime Minister and secretly supported Feng Mingwen.

 Although in his heart, he actually didn't have much confidence in the Prime Minister's words.

 But it’s not that important.

If the Prime Minister is right, that would be great, but there is no way to prove it now, and it is useless to say more.

If the Prime Minister is wrong, who will dare to revoke this old story of the Prime Minister once Guanzhong is captured?

 If we can't capture Guanzhong... How to deal with the aftermath of the defeat is the most important thing. What does this matter?

The Prime Minister glanced at Wu Ban, with an imperceptible admiration in his eyes.

Wu Yi and Wu Ban came from the same family of empress dowagers. Not only were they loyal ministers of the country, but they were also extremely talented, which is really rare.

Although Guan Xing can't be the first to take the lead, but now Wu Ban steps up, how can he not seize the opportunity?

 Seeing him, he quickly responded and said:

“That’s right, the Wei thieves are coming from the east and west, and they obviously want to attack us from a flank. The enemy is facing us, so we must retreat from it.”

“Have the Wei thieves been mobilized by Feng, er, Feng Mingwen? If we inquire after the war, we will know, so why discuss it at this time?”

　　No matter how much you dislike your brother-in-law, he is still your brother-in-law.

After all, who would have thought that in the Han Dynasty, someone would dare to occupy the Zhang family's youngest sister after marrying Sanniang?

It is outrageous to marry his mother!

 It’s all Feng Wenhe’s fault!

It’s just that in the past few years, the reputation of Guan Shilang Guan Suo, who has been riding the wind, is bound to his brother-in-law.

 How much honor Guan Suo has brought to the Guan family, then how deep the bond between the Guan family and his brother-in-law will be.

 The Guan family is prospering again, and Guan Xing is naturally happy.

It's just that if this prosperity is because someone in the Guan family is a boy or a girl, Guan Erlang will have some mixed feelings in his heart.

Every time news about Guan Suo comes, Guan Xing always has more and more extravagant hopes:

How great would it be if I really had such a brother?

For the sake of the perfect brother-in-law of the Guan family, even if his brother-in-law is a piece of yellow shit, Guan Xing would still close his eyes and grit his teeth and say:

 That’s gold! And it’s 10% real gold!

For Sanniang, for Fourth Brother, for the Guan family, not to mention he saved my life...

 Guan Xing silently hypnotized himself in his mind.

“That’s right, what Anguo said is very reasonable.”

 Zhang Bao quickly followed suit.

 For Siniang, for the prince, for the royal family, not to mention he saved my life...

 Zhang Bao silently hypnotized himself in his mind.

When Meng Yan saw that both Guan Xing and Zhang Bao were talking, he was naturally no longer afraid. He coughed and then muttered:

“What General Wu and General Guan said is very, well, very reasonable.”

 For the people of Yuexi, for the people of Nanzhong...

Meng Yan silently hypnotized himself in his mind.

There is no way. Over the years, Xinghanhui has invested a lot of manpower and material resources to develop a lot of fertile land in the Sunshui River Valley (the Anning River Valley in later generations, the second largest plain in Shu).

 Now the Xinghanhui has completely controlled the main output of Yuexun.

As for the various industries that are emerging in Nanzhong, Xinghanhui also has a lot of shares. If we add in the cooperation between Xinghanhui and the royal family, it is conservatively estimated that the proportion is at least 60-70%.

 The various powerful commanders in Nanzhong, as well as the wealthy families in Shu, can only feed on the remaining three or four elements.

However, the life of the Nanzhong Yi people is indeed much better than before.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Meng family members, especially those who moved to Yuexun, now have no worries about food and clothing. Some of the children in the family are even "learned at an early age."

 All these changes are naturally closely related to the emerging industries in Nanzhong.

 The leader of the Xinghan Association cannot be offended, cannot be offended!

General Meng, the tiger-stepping supervisor, comforted himself in his heart:

Since King Feng Gui is so famous in Nanzhong, as a foreigner from Nanzhong, it is normal for me to kneel down and lick him occasionally, right?

Standing at the end, in charge of the army’s food and grass, Li Feng quietly took back his half-step:

 Forget it, I’ll keep my mouth shut and just watch from the corner.

 …

 All the generals suddenly spoke together, making the atmosphere in the commander's tent suddenly awkward.

 Wei Yan was the number one general in the Prime Minister's army, and Yang Yi, as a long history officer, was the nominal number one person under the Prime Minister.

The two of them were usually enemies, but they joined forces once in a century, but unexpectedly they encountered tactful opposition from important generals in the commander's camp.

This situation, let alone the two of them, was caught off guard. Even the prime minister was a little unexpected.

Zhuge Liang's eyes flashed and he glanced at the people in the tent again.
