The guards entered the tent and blew out the oil lamp, which was running out of oil.

Zhuge Liang, who was in a hurry to write at the desk, did not raise his head, and ordered: "Add a lamp of oil." ”

The guard was stunned for a moment, looked at the oil lamp in his hand, bowed down and said, "Prime Minister, it's dawn." ”

"It's dawn?" Zhuge Liang responded, the pen in his hand paused, and then he wrote again. As he wrote, he commanded, "Then open the door of the tent and let it breathe." ”

"Whoa." The guards opened the tent door, and the cool morning breeze blew in, blowing away the strong smell of lamp oil. Zhuge Liang perked up, quickly finished writing the word zuihou, looked at it again, put it aside, then rubbed his hands, rubbed his face again, and stood up with the bookcase. He sat on his knees all night, his legs had lost sensation, and when he stood up, he suddenly felt the pain in his legs like pins and needles, and the pain made the corners of his eyes twitch uncontrollably.

The guards hurriedly rushed over, carefully held him, and walked to the door of the tent step by step. Looking at the whitening sky in the east, Zhuge Liang held his waist with one hand, grabbed the arm of the guard with the other, supported his swaying body, squinted his eyes, and took a while to adapt to the light outside. He sighed softly, "It's dawning again." ”

"Yes, Prime Minister, you haven't slept all night." The guard choked up.

Zhuge Liang smiled silently, didn't say anything, and waited for the tingling on his legs to lighten his body, and his waist slowly straightened up, then he let go of the guard's hand and said tiredly: "Go and prepare some porridge for me." He thought for a moment and said, "Put more ginger." ”

"Whoa." The guard responded, looked at Zhuge Liang nervously, and reminded: "Prime Minister, I'm going to let go." ”

Zhuge Liang waved his hand, crossed his waist with one hand, supported his forehead with the other, and slowly rubbed his sore eyebrows with his fingers. After a busy day and a night, he felt very tired. But what if he doesn't do this, the army is about to move, and there are thousands of things waiting for him to deal with, and if there is a delay, 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 porridge, but he felt that there was no taste. It was clear that his stomach was empty, and looking at the thickly cooked ginger porridge, he had no appetite at all. Reluctantly ate two bites, he hesitated, feeling too tired, it was better to lie down for a while before someone came to ask for instructions, and he didn't care about the habit of taking a walk after dinner, and went to the marching couch in the back tent, just lay down, and before he could close his eyes, Huo Yi walked in quickly.

As soon as he saw Zhuge Liang's tired face, Huo Yi zhanzhu, looked at the military report in his hand, and hesitated.

Zhuge Liang had already heard Huo Yi's footsteps, and knew that Huo Yi must have been in a hurry when he came to him so early, but he still lay down for a while and didn't get up immediately. For him, a moment of relaxation is a rare pleasure. He just opened his heavy eyelids: "Shaoxian, what's the matter?" ”

"Prime Minister, join the army Wei Ba, send someone to deliver an urgent report."

"Wei Ba?" Zhuge Liang was startled, the whole person suddenly came to his senses, and as soon as he worked hard, he wanted to sit up. However, he quickly suppressed his impulse again, and was silent for a moment before he asked lightly, "What urgent report?" ”

Huo Yi swallowed his saliva, and a gurgling sound came out of his throat. Zhuge Liang turned his head in surprise and looked at Huo Yi. Huo Yi is the prime minister's room, in charge of the chapter and table documents, and he has to look at all the documents that go to the prime minister's mansion. Although Zhuge Liang must do everything himself, but there are many things, and he must also prioritize, so Huo Yi also has the function of evaluating documents. In Zhuge Liang's opinion, what can Wei Ba's empty head do to join the army, at most, it is just urging food and the like, this matter has been arranged, and there is no need to deal with it in a hurry.

So seeing Huo Yi's expression, Zhuge Liang was a little confused.

"Prime Minister, this is a very strange urgent report." Huo Yi said cautiously: "This is the result of a game. ”

"Games?" Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief, angry and funny: "Shaoxian, Wei Ba has just started to be an official, he doesn't understand the importance of it, how can you be confused." The result of a game is also in a hurry? ”

"Prime Minister, this game is different, it is a tactical deduction game, and the tactics of deduction are the entire Northern Expedition."

Zhuge Liang was startled, then frowned, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "This kid is really ignorant, the Northern Expedition is a major event, and how to use it as a game." He didn't get up, but smiled silently: "Needless to say, it must be that if you don't adopt Meridian Valley Jihua, you will fail?" ”

Huo Yi nodded.

Zhuge Liang got a little bored, turned over, and turned his back to Huo Yi. He was very dissatisfied with Huo Yi's actions today, but he didn't want to say it, so as not to embarrass Huo Yi. Turn over, which means that Huo Yi can go out.

Huo Yi has been following Zhuge Liang for a long time, of course he understands this meaning, but he didn't move. He looked at the urgent report in his hand again, and said in a deep voice: "Prime Minister, I will put this result on your case, and after the Prime Minister rests and gets up, you can take a look." ”

Zhuge Liang's back tightened, slowly turned around, and sat up. After he expressed this attitude, Huo Yi still insisted on such an attitude, which is enough to show that in Huo Yi's opinion, the result of this game is very important and worth watching. He stretched out his hand to Huo Yi: "Bring it to me." ”

Huo Yi didn't hand it to him: "Prime Minister, you'd better take a break and look at it again." ”

Zhuge Liang frowned: "Is it so important? ”

"It's not because it's important, of course I think it's really important, but I'm worried that there are too many calculations here, and if the prime minister is not mentally enough, I'm afraid he won't 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 this, then Wei Ba's urgent report is really not simple. His curiosity suddenly rose, and the tiredness all over his body seemed to have faded a little, and he reached out to take the urgent report from Huo Yi's hand, unfolded it and glanced at it, and couldn't help but sigh.

This is the second official document since Wei Ba took office, but it is the first official document sent directly to Zhuge Liang. He didn't quote scriptures and say any clichés, but explained the reason at the beginning, he and Zhao Guang, Fu Xing and others had nothing to do, played a game, and deduced some unimaginable results, thinking that it might be beneficial to the prime minister, so he specially wrote the whole process for the prime minister's reference.

Next, there is the relevant explanation of the game deduction, and then the process of dozens of deductions, zuihou is a comprehensive explanation.

Wei Ba's writing is not beautiful, and even a little dry, but he has one thing that Zhuge Liang is very satisfied with, that is, he estimated that his urgent report may be very long, and he was worried that the prime minister would not be able to read it for a while, so he drew up a summary in front of him, and summarized the content of several parts separately, so that he could understand the general content of each part without reading the entire content.

Zhuge Liang read very quickly, he omitted the deduction process with the most content, and directly turned to Zuihou's comprehensive explanation, and after reading it twice, his face became complicated. There is both surprise and relief, and at the same time it is mixed with some unhappiness.

Zhuge Liang closed the emergency report, stood up, and slowly walked towards the outer tent. Huo Yi followed cautiously. Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the spacious outer tent for two steps, then turned to Huo Yi and said, "Go and invite Ma Youchang, Yang Weigong, Hu Weidu, and Fei Wenwei to come." ”

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 Zhuge Liang to attach so much importance to it, and called all the four cronies around him in one go. He didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went out to arrange for someone to invite. Zhuge Liang paced back and forth in the tent, glancing at the urgent report in his hand from time to time.

It didn't take long for Ma Tan to walk in first, and as soon as he entered the tent, he smiled and said: "Prime Minister, what tricks did that kid Wei Ba come up with to make the Prime Minister so interested?" ”

Zhuge Liang grinned at the corner of his mouth and handed the urgent report in his hand to Ma Yan. Ma Yan already knew something from Huo Yi's mouth, and at this moment he didn't look at the contents, first looked at the cover, and then quickly glanced at the signature at the end, his brows were already slightly furrowed: "This is his own idea?" ”

"Do you think it will?" Zhuge Liang had a calm face, and there was some struggle in his eyes.

Ma Yan's eyes rolled: "This kid is bold, maybe Bo Song doesn't know it well, but it's possible." ”

"But Wei Ba fought against him, and he didn't report to me, but 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, and he has no responsibility at all, what will he do in the future?" ”

Ma Jian hurriedly smiled and said: "Prime Minister, maybe Bo Song's report is on the way, but it hasn't arrived yet, so why are you in a hurry?" Besides, this is just a game for a few young people who have nothing to do, and it's not a big deal, and it is understandable that Bo Song has something to do and does not take care of these things for a while. ”

"Young Chang, don't defend him." Zhuge Liang flicked his sleeves vigorously, and his anger was beyond words. He gasped twice, and then said loudly: "This is not responsible, not responsible." If you don't take responsibility, how can you be alone in the future? ”

As he was talking, Yang Yi walked in quickly, just when he heard 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 Tan saw it and hurriedly stuffed the urgent report in his hand into his hand. "Wei Gong, you 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 item and looked at it at a glance. At first glance, he sneered to show his disdain, but when he saw the second part, his expression began to become solemn, and he looked more and more slowly, and from time to time he had to stop and think about it. Seeing his expression, not only Zhuge Liang and Ma Yan, but even Fei Yi and Hu Ji, who arrived later, were also a little solemn. ———— ask for recommendations, ask for collections!
