"Go to the three eastern counties?" Wei Yan grabbed the short beard under his jaw, his eyes with a little puzzled look: "Zhuge Qiao?"

Wei Ba nodded, but said nothing. He had already told his father about Zhuge Qiao's visit to him, and also told him about his recommendation of Zhao Guang and Fu Xing, but he did not explain why. If he let his father know that he was willing to fight Zhuge Cheng now, God knows what his father would react.

Wei Yan didn't realize what his son was thinking at all. He was a little confused by Zhuge Liang's appointment.

If the East Three counties are important, then a general should be sent. Zhuge Qiao never fought a war and only arranged 5,000 people. What's the use? Meng Da alone has more than 4,000 troops. Meng Da himself has been fighting for nearly twenty years. How could Zhuge Qiao be able to deal with it?

If the East Three Counties are not important, it is even more unreasonable. Everyone knows that the East Three Counties are the gateways of Hanzhong, and the recovery of the East Three Counties has immeasurable significance for the security of Hanzhong.

"The Prime Minister's arrangement is really unexpected." Wei Yan thought about it for a while, but still couldn't figure it out, so he could only sigh half-true and half-falsely.

Wei Ba glanced at the corner of his mouth and then returned to solemnity. Although he did not fully understand what Zhuge Liang's arrangement was intended, he could vaguely guess that it was not entirely military significance, but also mixed with many political significance. My father had outstanding military prominence, but unfortunately he was almost an idiot in politics and would definitely not think of that level.

It seems that this characteristic has been around the ages and the present. Most of the people who have outstanding military prominence are politically idiots. While they are invincible on the battlefield, they are often defeated in the court, and there are very few experts like Wang Jian.

"Although joining the army is not a high-powered position, being able to join the Prime Minister's Office is a training for you. You must be careful and not cause trouble like before."

Since Wei Yan couldn't understand it, he simply ignored it. He taught Wei Ba the lesson seriously, which made Wei Ba laugh and cry. You can understand these principles too, but why can't you do it yourself? Like a Marxist flashlight, it's not like a Marxist flashlight. However, seeing his father who has always been majestic and ruthless, he was chattering like a broken-mouthed woman, Wei Ba felt warm in his heart, and he didn't care about his father's dogmatism and agreed no matter how hard he was.

"Since you are in the army, don't take the maid. If you have a woman... it will hurt your morale after all." Wei Yan hesitated for a moment, as if he felt that the little maid with a big blue spot seemed to be incompatible with beauty, but he still suggested that Wei Ba keep Peng Xiaoyu and the rest of his life will be done by Dunwu and others. In order to ensure Wei Ba's safety, Wei Yan personally selected twenty strong guards and handed them over to Dunwu, and took special care of him before giving up.

"Dad, I want to go back to the manor."

"What are you doing when you go back to the manor? I miss home?"

"The war is about to go out, and I want to go back to see my mother." Wei Ba smiled and said to Wei Feng again: "Brother, do you have anything to bring to my mother?"

Wei Feng touched his head and smiled honestly, "I have nothing to say, just ask her for help."

"Okay. I have something to ask my elder brother for help." Wei Badao: "Peng Xiaoyu will follow you during the time I am not in the camp, so don't let someone bully her."

Wei Yan looked at Wei Ba in surprise and rebuked dissatisfiedly: "A maid is worthy of your caution? Ziyu, I found that you are really not serious now. A real man should focus on his achievements, so how can he regard a woman as his thoughts, let alone a maid."

Wei Ba smiled and did not explain. He believed that his elder brother Wei Feng would take good care of Peng Xiaoyu for him. In fact, the three brothers and father were different. His father had little contact with Peng Xiaoyu. In his eyes, Peng Xiaoyu was just a maid. In the eyes of Wei Feng and Wei Wu, Peng Xiaoyu was still a woman with a poor background, and in the eyes of Wei Ba, Peng Xiaoyu was even half a strategist, not as simple as a maid.

Back at his camp, Peng Xiaoyu had already packed his luggage and placed it neatly aside. Wei Ba said his arrangement to Peng Xiaoyu. Peng Xiaoyu looked at him quietly and said nothing. He just said no, lowered his head and fiddled with his belt.

"Okay, my eldest brother is actually better than me, you will be free from now on." Wei Ba smiled deliberately, "Maybe you don't want to be my maid again when I come back."

Peng Xiaoyu said quietly: "Young Master Feng is a good person."

Wei Ba rolled his eyes and did not answer her words. He had received countless good person cards in his previous life. Of course, he knew that the word "good person" had different meanings in different occasions. Peng Xiaoyu's words may not have much emotional elements, but she did point out Wei Feng's personality weakness: he was loyal but did not know how to change. To put it bluntly, he didn't even have the domineering nature of his father.

...

The next day, the appointment letter from the Prime Minister's Office was sent to the Wei family camp. Wei Ba was appointed as the military officer of the Prime Minister's Office. His full name was the Military Office of the Prime Minister. According to his unwritten rank, he belonged to the seventh rank. He was two rank lower than the former military advisor whom his father served as, and was comparable to Yang Yi, Ma Su and others. Of course, this is only in terms of writing and qualifications. Wei Ba is incomparable to those people. Similarly, in the Prime Minister's Office, it is not just about rank. Different people hold the same position, but the magnitude of power is completely different.

Wei Ba's specific task is to assist Zhuge Qiao, responsible for the raising and transportation of the army of Zhuge Qiao, which is considered logistics work. The work task is not heavy, and there is no need to lead troops to the front line, which is relatively low. This is also a factor that he has not really led troops. Wei Ba had expected this, and there was no surprise. He has been doing this for half a year with his father, which is quite familiar.

Compared with him, Zhao Guang and Fu Xing, who had experience in leading troops, took on more important tasks. Fu Xing originally had more than 200 plots. This time, Zhuge Liang assigned another song of 200 people to him, allowing him to become the real commander. Zhao Guang also assigned more than 200 people to be responsible for logistics transportation, which was considered to be a work-related task with Wei Ba.

Among the more than ten staff officers and commanders led by Zhuge Qiao, eleven of them were the children of civil officials and military generals in Jingxiang. Apart from Zhao Guang, there was only one Mi Wei. Mi Wei was the son of Mi Zhu. Because Mi Fang surrendered to Jiangdong, Mi Zhu died in shame. The current leader of the Mi family was Mi Wei. Although Mi Zhu followed Liu Bei for many years and became General Anhan, he had no military achievements and was unable to be granted a title, so Mi Wei had no title to inherit. Now he is just an empty commander, with only more than a hundred old soldiers under his command, which looks very desolate.

Mi Wei was arranged to be Zhao Guang's deputy, and his identity seemed to be similar to Wei Ba, but when he thought of Wei Ba's military position, Mi Wei was far behind. Even Zhao Guang, the commander who seemed to be the head of the logistics battalion, was a little lower than Wei Ba's who did not lead troops.

The army sailed down the Mian River, and its destination was Anyang County on the western border of Weixing County. With ships, the soldiers were much more relaxed and the transportation of food and grass was easier. The head general Zhuge Qiao was riding a medium-sized warship, which was not ostentatious, but in a fleet of mostly transport ships, no matter how unrestrained it is, it is enough to make people feel Zhuge Qiao's uniqueness.

After the fleet began to set off, Wei Ba boarded Zhuge Qiao's warship, and Zhuge Qiao was about to gather for the first time to discuss matters.

Wei Ba and Zhao Guang got on the boat and found that most of the others had arrived. Fu Xing sat at the side of the door. When he saw Wei Ba coming in, he smiled and nodded and greeted him. Seeing that there was still a free seat beside him, Wei Ba was about to go over to sit down, Fu Xing quickly shook his head and said, "How can you sit here? This is the place for Zhongde."

Wei Ba was about to ask why, Zhuge Qiao laughed: "Ziyu, come here. Although you are responsible for food and grass, you are not the general of the baggage camp. How can you sit there? Come and sit next to me."

Wei Ba touched his head awkwardly. He had never been an official in his previous life. Although he had a certain degree of meetings in the company, he was not as particular as in the officialdom. In this life, he had never attended any decent meetings and had no chance to experience this official culture. He showed timidity as soon as he appeared.

Wei Ba walked to Zhuge Qiao. Zhuge Qiao sat in the main seat facing the cabin door, and there were two empty seats on the left and right. At the lower head on the right, there was a person Wei Ba didn't want to see the least: Yang Wei. Obviously, Yang Wei didn't want to see Wei Ba either. As soon as he saw Wei Ba in, his eyes became fierce, and his thin face became hard because his teeth were biting too tightly. He even heard the sound of giggling teeth. Wei Ba frowned, not wanting to get too close to this enemy, and turned to the position on Zhuge Qiao's right hand.

Unexpectedly, when he took a step, Yang Wei smiled sinisterly: "I said Wei joins the army. Although you are talented, you are too conceited. Do you think you are the most noble person here, but you actually want to attend the seat?"

Wei Ba was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that not only the positions are different from the upper and lower, but also from the left and right. The position on the left of the master is respected at the right, and the so-called waiting for the left is this. When he went to court, the East and the West were also a sign that civil officials were superior to military officials.

Wei Ba was a little embarrassed. He ignored Yang Wei's sarcasm. He turned around and walked towards the empty seat on the right of Zhuge Qiao. A voice sounded outside the cabin door: "Let's wait, please join the army in Wei."——————Second update, please recommend votes and collect them.
