Chapter 2359 Wang She

Of course, Wang She attached great importance to such an opportunity. He climbed up step by step from the bottom of the army. It was so difficult to sit in his current position.

Back then, Wang She, who had just joined the army, followed Zhuge Liang's army to fight in the Northern Expedition. At that time, he was still a small sergeant commander. Because he had caught up with that good era, during the period when Zhuge Liang frequently sent troops to fight, as long as you were brave enough to fight and could ensure that you survive on the battlefield, there were a lot of opportunities for promotion.

In this way, Wang She soared all the way. By the time Zhuge Liang died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, Wang She had already become a military marquis, in charge of Yiqu's troops, with 500 subordinates under his jurisdiction.

At that time, Wang She was full of confidence. At this speed, even if she was promoted to a general, it would be just around the corner.

However, after Prime Minister Zhuge's death, the military activities of the Shu army stagnated. Wang She was stationed in Hanzhong all year round, without any war, so naturally there was no way to gain military merit.

However, the cold army officers like Wang She, who were born in the Shu army, were caught by a large number of people in the Shu army. Without military merits, it would be much more difficult to obtain channels for promotion. After all, although Zhuge Liang also pursued the system of employing people as wise men, the idea of ​​prioritizing the gentry did not change much, especially when Jiang Wan and Fei Yi were in power, they gradually moved closer to the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of Wei. Origin determines everything, and Wang She and others were almost blocked.

From the death of Zhuge Liang in the 12th year of Jianxing to the assassination of General Fei Yi in the 16th year of Yanxi, Wang She has been a military marquis for 19 years, and his position has never moved. He has gone from a passionate young man to a worldly middle-aged man. His blood is cold and his heart is cold. Wang She even came up with the idea of ​​retirement, and went to the local area to get a job and wait for death.

Then Jiang Wei's rise to power brought new opportunities to Wang She. After Fei Yi died unexpectedly, Jiang Wei, who was also a minister of the Shangshu, took over the power, and no one could control him from then on.

During Fei Yi's administration, although Jiang Wei had given certain military power, he often had less than ten thousand troops. This made Jiang Wei seem alone every time he went to war, and he could only make small fuss and send troops to attack the barbarians such as Qiang and Hu, and he could not confront the Wei army at all.

As soon as Fei Yi died, Jiang Wei was no longer in charge. A few months later, he led tens of thousands of troops out of the Shiying camp to attack Nan'an, and started a new round of battle against Wei.

Wang She went on a war with the army again. For the past ten years, Wang She has been studying military tactics hard. Anyway, he is idle, so he has to find something for himself. Wang She, who originally didn't know a lot of words, has been diligent in studying these years, and has achieved success in his studies. He is immersed in the world of military tactics and strategies and has learned a lot.

The officers who were similar to his official positions all laughed at Wang She. They had been working hard to read military tactics in front of the military marquis for twenty years. Do you really think you have the potential to be a general?

But Wang She ignored the ridicule of others and still did his own thing. He not only read military tactics, but also applied a lot of knowledge in military tactics to his daily practice.

Opportunities are always for those who are prepared. In the Battle of Xiangwu in the 17th year of Yanxi, the Shu army captured Xiangwu, killed the defender Xu Zhi, successively conquered Hejian, Heguan, Lintao and other places, and sent their people to return with great victory. It was during this battle that Wang She's men performed well and was appreciated by Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei immediately appointed Wang She as the lieutenant of Pinglu and used it.

During Jiang Wei's several northern expeditions, Wang She's performance was also quite outstanding. He led the army well, advanced and retreated properly, and even was able to be calm when he was cut off. He was highly valued by Jiang Wei. Later, he appointed him as the military supervisor and General Jianwei.

Although General Jianwei was a miscellaneous general and his rank was not high, his position as a military supervisor was very important. It can be said that he was the right-hand man of the general and could not be taken by someone who was not a confidant. Jiang Wei used Wang She as the military supervisor, which shows that Wang She was still not low in his heart.

This time, Jiang Wei designed a plan to gather troops and gather valleys to defend Hanzhong. The guardians of these three fortresses were the ones he relied most. If one of them dropped the chain at a critical moment, Jiang Wei's defense plan would be completely bankrupt.

Therefore, the guards of these three fortresses were all chosen by Jiang Wei to think carefully. Jiang Bin is the son of Jiang Wan, a descendant of a famous family, and outstanding ability. Jiang Wei arranged for him to guard Seoul. Fu Qian and Jiang Shu were both favorite generals of Jiang Wei. Because Yangping Pass is more important than anywhere else, Jiang Wei specially arranged Fu Qian and Jiang Shu to Yangping Pass to play a dual insurance role. Moreover, the troops stationed at Yangping Pass were the largest, which was on par with the two Han Le City.

In the end, Lecheng was left. Jiang Wei thought about it for a long time, not to put the burden of defending Lecheng on Wang She.

Of course, this will inevitably arouse criticism from the generals of the Shu army. After all, in terms of qualifications and background, Wang She is obviously not qualified.

However, what Jiang Wei values ​​now is not just qualifications and background. Ma Su's qualifications were good back then, but due to the loss of Jieting, Zhuge Liang's most likely success in the Northern Expedition failed. Therefore, the people Jiang Wei chose now do not look at the background and qualifications. What he wants is practical ability.

Wang She's performance in recent battles against Wei was reassuring, which made Jiang Wei quite relieved. After much consideration, Jiang Wei still opposed the opposition and handed over Lecheng's defense to Wang She, who formed the iron triangle of Hanzhong's defense and jointly defended Hanzhong.

When Wang She got such a high-quality opportunity, he naturally did not dare to be slackened. Since he took office in Lecheng, he has been diligent in Lecheng's defense affairs, strengthening the city walls, repairing military armor, rectifying the troops, always on guard, and meticulously fulfilling Jiang Wei's orders, and sticking to Lecheng without slacking off.

It has been three years since he was in Lecheng. Although people have been questioning Wang She and thinking that he is not qualified to take on this important task, Wang She has always been doing what he should do in obscurity. Among the three major guards, Wang She is also the most low-key existence.

Even Yan Yu regarded Wang She as a soft persimmon and wanted to take him off.

However, when facing Yan Yu, who is higher than him, Wang She can still be neither humble nor arrogant and abide by his bottom line. Although Wang She is not as tough as Jiang Bin, he also has his own principles. If you want Lecheng's military power, you can, but you must get rid of his head and do not step over his body, and no one can touch Lecheng at all.
