Outside Chencang City, inside the Han army camp.

Holding the battle report delivered yesterday in his hand, Zhuge Liang's face is still full of joy to this day.

Zhuge Liang had confidence in Mi Yang, just as Mi Yang had confidence in him.

But there is confidence. When he learned that the Han army had achieved great results under the leadership of Mi Yang, Zhuge Liang still couldn't control his emotions.

It’s not to blame that Zhuge Liang’s Qi-nurturing skills are not good. It’s true that anyone who has a heart for the Han Dynasty cannot remain calm about the outcome of the battle at Wuzhangyuan.

While Zhuge Liang was repeatedly reading the battle report in his hand, Yang Yi happened to walk into the account holding a volume of documents.

After seeing Zhuge Liang's movements and expressions, Yang Yi also had an uncontrollable smile on her face.

Just don't delay the business.

Yang Yi called softly:

"Prime Minister!"

After hearing Yang Yi's call and seeing the document in his hand, Zhuge Liang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Zhuge Liang certainly knew what the documents in Yang Yi's hands were about.

It is about the food and fodder for Mi Yang's 100,000 troops.

Originally, after Mi Yang took over the military power from Liu Bei in Shanggui, Liu Bei thought that he could still shine, so he personally supervised the transportation of grain and grass for Mi Yang.

But after Zhuge Liang came to Guanzhong and learned about Liu Bei's physical condition, he jointly signed a letter with Mi Yang, asking Liu Bei to put down his government affairs and return to Nanzheng City to take good care of his health.

Faced with the sincere admonitions of two important ministers, one civil and one military, Liu Bei was unwilling to surrender in every possible way, and was coaxed and deceived by Zhuge Liang and Mi Yang into "expelling" him to Nanzheng.

The main reason is that after Zhuge Liang arrived, Liu Bei's stay in Guanzhong was really of little use...

After Liu Bei returned to Nanzheng to recuperate, Zhuge Liang took on the important task of ensuring the logistics transportation of 100,000 Han troops.

Just being responsible for the food, ordnance consumption, transportation, hoarding and other matters for a hundred thousand troops is very labor intensive.

But Zhuge Liang not only did not feel tired, but his whole body was full of energy.

What's more important is that even though most of Zhuge Liang's energy was involved in the heavy army logistics office, Hao Zhao in Chencang City still failed to break through the defense line set by Zhuge Liang.

Hao Zhao had a good way of defending the city. Historically, Hao Zhao relied on the city defense of Chencang City and indeed repelled Zhuge Liang's fierce attack.

But if Hao Zhao led his army out of the city to fight in the field, it would be a big deal.

Zhuge Liang took the heavy document from Yang Yi with a smile in his eyes, and then he smiled and said to Yang Yi:

"In the past few days, Zi Sheng has written to me asking about my food and grass matters.

This child was obviously worried about the lack of food and grass, but he never showed a hurried tone in his letters.

I know he is worried that I am too tired."

In front of his confidant Yang Yi, Zhuge Liang undoubtedly showed his personal feelings towards Mi Yang.

It can be seen from Zhuge Liang's tone that he regards Mi Yang as his own Orchid Pavilion Zhi tree.

After listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Yang Yi could hardly suppress the smile on her face.

But with good qi-nurturing skills, Yang Yi still tried his best to put on a straight face and said:

"The general is extremely sincere and filial to the prime minister."

Yang Yi's words made Zhuge Liang raise his eyebrows, and the smile on his face became a little wider.

"I know Zisheng's filial piety.

But now Zi Sheng is fighting for the Han Dynasty on the front line and will soon besiege Chang'an. How can I slack off at this golden opportunity for the revival of the Han Dynasty?"

After finishing speaking, Zhuge Liang unfolded the documents on the case and began to review them carefully.

When Yang Yi saw Zhuge Liang starting to work, he wanted to get up and go out.

But when Yang Yi got up and almost walked to the door, Zhuge Liang said to Yang Yi:

"Send someone to shoot the news that Cao Zhen is "trapped in Wuzhangyuan" into the city."

Zhuge Liang's words made Yang Yi's expression tighten.

He knew that Zhuge Liang was going to officially attack Hao Zhao in Chencang City.

Yang Yi knew about Cao Zhen's death in Wuzhangyuan, but Hao Zhao, who was trapped in the city, did not know.

And once Hao Zhao learned that Cao Zhen was surrounded by Han troops and was in danger, could Hao Zhao still be able to sit in the city?

As long as Hao Zhao can be lured out of Chencang, the ownership of Chencang City is honestly only a matter of Zhuge Liang's thoughts.

But what Zhuge Liang said next made Yang Yi's urge to laugh even stronger.

"When Zisheng led his army to Wuzhangyuan, I had a bet with him.

Let's see whether he takes Chang'an first or I take Chencang first.

Now that Zisheng is about to surround Chang'an, it's time for me to take action.

It’s the first time in your life that you make a bet, so you can’t lose to your own children.”

Zhuge Liang's tone was calm but somewhat helpless.

Unexpectedly, the reason why the Prime Minister decided to capture Hao Zhao was not because he was worried that Hao Zhao would cause trouble to the Han army.

But I simply don’t want to lose a bet with my child.

After all, Hao Zhao was one of the Wei generals guarding Chencang. If Hao Zhao knew what Zhuge Liang was thinking, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

But when she thought of Mi Yang, who had just won a big victory, Yang Yi felt relieved.

Compared to the oath Mi Yang made by the Wei River, Zhuge Liang, as a master, had already had a hard time controlling his confidence.

This pair of master and disciple.

After Yang Yi bowed to Zhuge Liang, he followed the order and walked out of the tent.

After Yang Yi walked out of the tent, what caught his eyes were soldiers on duty and patrolling everywhere outside the tent.

No matter which soldier it was, there was a strange look on its face.

This strange look is called forced joy.

Well, the look on Yang Yi and Zhuge Liang's face cannot be said to be similar, it can only be said to be exactly the same.

But why do the Han army have such strange expressions?

The great victory of Gozhanghara is a happy event worthy of grand celebration. You can cheer if you want, so why should you suppress yourself?

Yang Yi, as a party involved, knows the reason best.

After the great victory at Wuzhangyuan, it was a foreseeable fact that Chang'an would be surrounded by the Han army.

Of course, we can cheer now, but why not wait until Chang'an is officially taken back by Mi Yang before having a complete carnival?

Otherwise, what if the general captures Chang'an in a few days and they, who have just finished the carnival, will not be enthusiastic enough?

You have to be more restrained. A "mere" victory in Wuzhangyuan is normal for the general and is not worth it...

Before Yang Yi could mentally prepare himself, he couldn't help but quickly left the tent.

After Yang Yi left, Zhuge Liang in the big tent looked at the documents on the desk and felt a little unable to concentrate for a while.

He couldn't help but glance at the Wuzhangyuan victory report placed aside.

Zhuge Liang subconsciously stretched out his hand and headed towards the good news.

A moment later, the good news fell into Zhuge Liang's hands again.

Rubbing the cover of the battle report carefully with his fingers, Zhuge Liang could no longer hold back the joy in his heart as he thought of the many results recorded in the battle report.

Waves of hearty laughter came from his mouth.

While laughing, Zhuge Liang clapped the good news in his palm with his other hand, as if he was playing drums to celebrate Mi Yang.

In other words, I am celebrating the big man and my own ideals!

Over the past decades, many heroes have shed blood on the battlefield.

Finally, finally!

Their ideals are no longer illusory, but can be clearly felt in their hands.

Just one step away, just one step away!

When he thought of this, Zhuge Liang felt a burning feeling flowing in his heart.

That was the ideal temperature in his heart.

And that blazing heat also made Zhuge Liang completely intoxicated with strong anticipation and joy.

Zi Sheng, there is only one last step left.

Everyone in the world is watching you.

The generations to come a hundred and a thousand years from now will also look at you in the history books.

We must, must, let the big man successfully take this last step!
