The bodyguard walked into the tent and blew out the oil lamp that was about to run out of oil.
Zhuge Liang, who was writing urgently at his desk, without raising his head, ordered: "Add a cup of oil."
The guard was stunned for a moment, looked at the oil lamp in his hand, bowed and said: "Prime Minister, it's dawn."
"It's daybreak?" Zhuge Liang responded, paused with the pen in his hand, and then started writing again. While writing, he ordered: "Then open the tent door and let in some air."
"Here." The guard opened the tent door, and the cool morning breeze blew in, blowing away the strong smell of lamp oil. Zhuge Liang perked up, quickly wrote the last few words, looked at it again, and put it aside.
Then he rubbed his hands, then his face, and stood up holding on to the desk. He had been sitting on his knees all night, and his legs had lost all feeling. When he stood up, he suddenly felt pain in his legs like needles, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't even see the corners of his eyes.
Twitching all the time.
The guard hurried over, carefully helped him, and walked step by step to the door of the tent. Looking at the gradually whitening sky in the east, Zhuge Liang held his waist with one hand, and grabbed the guard's arm with the other hand, supporting the swaying
He squinted his body and squinted his eyes. It took him a while to adapt to the skylight outside. He sighed softly: "It's bright again."
"Yes, Prime Minister, you haven't slept all night again." The guard choked.
Zhuge Liang smiled silently and said nothing. After the tingling on his legs subsided and his waist slowly straightened up, he let go of the guard's hand and said tiredly: "Go and prepare some porridge for me.
." He thought for a while and then said: "Put more ginger."
"Here." The guard responded, looked at Zhuge Liang nervously, and reminded: "Prime Minister, I'm going to let go."
Zhuge Liang waved his hand, put one hand on his waist, held his forehead with the other, and slowly rubbed his sore eyebrows with his fingers. After a busy day and night, he felt very tired. But what could he do if he didn't do this? The army was about to move.
There are countless things waiting for him to deal with. If any one thing is delayed, it may have an impact that cannot be ignored.
The guards brought the porridge. Zhuge Liang returned to the tent and ate a few mouthfuls of the porridge, but he felt that it had no taste. It was clear that his stomach was empty. Looking at the thick ginger porridge, he had no appetite at all. He reluctantly ate it.
After two mouthfuls, he hesitated for a moment, feeling that he was really too tired. It would be better to lie down for a while before anyone came to ask for instructions. He ignored his habit of taking a walk after dinner and went to the camp couch in the back tent. He just lay down and didn't wait for a while.
He closed his eyes and Huo Yi walked in quickly.
As soon as he saw Zhuge Liang's tired face, Huo Yi stopped and looked at the military report in his hand, feeling a little hesitant.
Zhuge Liang had already heard Huo Yi's footsteps and knew that Huo Yi must have something urgent to come to him so early. However, he still lay down for a while and did not get up immediately. For him, a moment of relaxation was a rare enjoyment. He
He just opened his heavy eyelids: "Xian Shao, what's the matter?"
"Prime Minister, join the army at Wei Ba and send someone to deliver an urgent report."
"Wei Ba?" Zhuge Liang was startled. He suddenly woke up and tried to sit up. However, he quickly suppressed his impulse and was silent for a moment before asking calmly: "What's the urgent news?"
?”
Huo Yi swallowed and made a gurgling sound in his throat. Zhuge Liang turned his head in surprise and looked at Huo Yi. Huo Yi was in the Prime Minister's Office and was in charge of the paperwork. All documents arriving at the Prime Minister's Mansion must be sent to him first.
Let’s take a look. Although Zhuge Liang has to do everything personally, there are too many things and he has to prioritize them. Therefore, Huo Yi also has the function of evaluating documents. In Zhuge Liang’s view, what can Wei Ba’s empty-head join the army do? At most, it is just a reminder.
Food and other matters have already been arranged, so there is no need to rush.
So Zhuge Liang was a little confused when he saw Huo Yi's expression.
"Prime Minister, this is a very strange urgent message." Huo Yi said cautiously: "This is the result of a game."
"Game?" Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief, angry and funny: "Xian Shao, Wei Ba has just started to be an official. He doesn't understand the importance. Why are you confused too? The results of a game have to be delivered in a hurry?
"
"Prime Minister, this game is different. It is a tactical deduction game, and the tactics being deduced are the entire Northern Expedition."
Zhuge Liang was startled, and then frowned. After a moment, he said in a deep voice: "This kid is really ignorant. How can the Northern Expedition be treated as a game when it is such an important event." He did not get up, but laughed silently.
Laughing: "Needless to say, if the Ziwu Valley Plan was not adopted, it would have failed?"
Huo Yi nodded.
Zhuge Liang became a little bored, turned over, and turned his back to Huo Yi. He was very dissatisfied with Huo Yi's behavior today, but he didn't want to say it out loud to avoid embarrassment to Huo Yi. Turning over meant that Huo Yi could go out.
Huo Yi had been following Zhuge Liang for a long time, so of course he understood what he meant, but he stood still. He looked at the emergency report in his hand again and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister, I will put this result on your case. Prime Minister, rest."
You can take a look after you get up."
Zhuge Liang's back tightened, he slowly turned around and sat up. After he expressed this attitude, Huo Yi still insisted on this attitude, which is enough to show that in Huo Yi's view, the result of this game is very important and worth it.
After taking a look, he stretched out his hand to Huo Yi: "Bring it to me and see."
Huo Yi did not hand it to him: "Prime Minister, you'd better take a rest and read it again."
Zhuge Liang frowned: "Is it so important?"
"It's not because it's important. Of course I think it is. But I'm worried that there are too many calculations involved. If the Prime Minister is not energetic enough, he may not be able to figure it out for a while."
Zhuge Liang looked at Huo Yi in surprise. He knew very well what kind of position he had in Huo Yi's mind. Huo Yi said that, then Wei Ba's urgent report was really not simple. His curiosity suddenly aroused, and his whole body was filled with excitement.
His fatigue seemed to have faded a bit. He reached out to take the emergency report from Huo Yi, opened it and took a look at it, and he couldn't help but sigh.
This was Wei Ba's second official document since he took office, but it was the first official document sent directly to Zhuge Liang. He did not quote scriptures or make any clichés, but explained the reason from the beginning. He, Zhao Guang, Fu Xing and others had no time to
I had nothing to do, so I played a game and deduced some unexpected results. I thought it might be helpful to the Prime Minister, so I wrote down the whole process for the Prime Minister's reference.
Next, there is the relevant explanation of the game deduction, then the process of dozens of deductions, and finally the comprehensive explanation.
Wei Ba's writing was not beautiful, and even a little dry, but there was one thing about him that made Zhuge Liang very satisfied, that is, he estimated that his urgent message might be very long, and he was worried that the prime minister would not be able to finish it in a while.
, so he drafted an abstract before and summarized the contents of several parts respectively, so that he could understand the general contents of each part without reading the entire content.
Zhuge Liang read very quickly. He skipped the most detailed deduction process and went directly to the final comprehensive explanation. After reading it twice, his expression became complicated. He was both surprised and relieved, and at the same time he was not satisfied.
I felt mixed with some unhappiness.
Zhuge Liang closed the emergency report, stood up, and walked slowly towards the outer tent. Huo Yi followed carefully. Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the spacious outer tent, turned around and said to Huo Yi: "Go and invite Ma Youchang.
Yang Weigong, Hu Weidu, Fei Wenweilai."
Huo Yi was a little surprised. He knew that this urgent report was very important and Zhuge Liang would pay attention to it, but he didn't expect that Zhuge Liang would take it so seriously. He called all four of his cronies around him in one breath. He didn't dare to neglect and immediately went out to make arrangements.
People went to invite people. Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the tent, glancing at the urgent report in his hand from time to time.
Not long after, Ma Di was the first to walk in. As soon as he entered the tent, he smiled and said: "Prime Minister, what trick did that boy Wei Ba come up with again to make the Prime Minister so interested?"
Zhuge Liang grinned and handed the urgent report to Ma Su. Ma Su already knew some general information from Huo Yi's mouth. At this moment, he did not read the content. He first looked at the cover, and then quickly glanced at the signature at the end.
His brows have furrowed slightly: "Is this his own idea?"
"Do you think it is?" Zhuge Liang's face was solemn, with some struggle in his eyes.
Ma Su rolled his eyes: "This guy is brave. Maybe Bo Song doesn't know it well, but it's also possible."
"But Wei Ba fought against him. Why didn't he report to me? Instead, Wei Ba wrote an urgent report." Zhuge Liang's voice became louder, and his outstretched fingers were pale and trembling: "He is the commander of the army. This
If you don’t have any sense of responsibility, how can you do anything in the future?”
Ma Di quickly smiled and said: "Prime Minister, maybe Bo Song's report is on the way, but it hasn't arrived yet, so why are you anxious? Besides, this is just a game for a few young people with nothing to do, and it's not a big deal. Bo Song
There are serious things to do, so it’s understandable that I didn’t take these things into account for a while.”
"Youchang, don't defend him." Zhuge Liang shook his sleeves vigorously, and his anger was beyond words. He took two breaths and said loudly: "This is not taking responsibility, not taking responsibility. If you don't take responsibility, how can you be alone in the future?
?”
Just as he was talking, Yang Yi walked in quickly and happened to hear Zhuge Liang's words. Looking at Zhuge Liang's angry face, he was startled at first, and then a touch of joy flashed from his eyes. Ma Su looked at it and quickly stuffed the emergency report in his hand.
In his hand. "Wei Gong, take a look at this first and see if there are any loopholes in Wei Ba's calculations."
Yang Yi was a little unhappy, but he still took the urgent letter and read it at a glance. When he read the first part, he sneered to show his disdain, but when he saw the second part, his expression began to change.
Looking solemnly, he looked slower and slower, and from time to time he would stop to think and do calculations with his fingers. Seeing his expression, not only Zhuge Liang and Ma Di, but also Fei Yi and Hu Ji who arrived later
I am also a little more solemn.————Please recommend and collect!
