"Prime Minister......" Jiang Wei couldn't bear the pressure of this silence, and screamed.

Zhuge Liang slowly straightened his waist and closed his eyes vigorously. After looking at the map overnight, his eyes were now dry, and even his vision was a little blurry.

"Boyo, is there a way to the wooden gate from the direction of Lomon?"

Jiang Wei was shocked and stared at Zhuge Liang's eyes, this was the second time Zhuge Liang asked this question. He opened his mouth, but stopped talking. They had occasionally mentioned this issue before, and at that time Jiang Wei said lightly that it was impossible, to go to Mumen, the most Haode road was from Shangqi to the west, and then to the south, and the roads in other places were not suitable for the army.

Zhuge Liang didn't ask much at that time, but now he asked again, obviously thinking that Zhang He might attack the wooden gate. If this is the case, then he Jiang Wei will not be able to shirk responsibility.

Seeing that Jiang Wei was worried, Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly: "Boyo, you don't have any worries, I'm just worried, take precautions." If there's really no way out, that's fine. ”

"Prime Minister, it's not that there is no road, it's just that road...... It's hard to walk. Jiang Wei's voice was a little dry, he walked to the map, first found the place of Luomen, and then clicked in the southwest direction of Luomen: "From here, go south along the Fugu Waterway, bypass Zhuyuan Mountain, and you can rush to Mumen." However, the road was very long, about three hundred miles, and in several places it was too steep for cavalry to pass. ”

Zhuge Liang looked at Jiang Wei's face and sighed secretly. From Jiang Wei's tone, he could guess that this road may indeed be difficult to walk, but it is not absolutely impossible. What's more, they always believed that Zhang He would not attack Mumen because between Weishui and Yangshui, there were not only endless hills, but also a valley of water. Without ships, it is simply impassable. Now the road Jiang Wei said is a little farther away, but it just bypasses Duan Gushui.

If Zhang He wants to go. Would definitely choose this path.

Zhuge Liang's face was pale, he knew that fate was no longer in his hands, but in Zhang He's hands.

Zhuge Liang slowly stood up and walked outside the tent. Facing the white sky that had just been exposed, I pondered for a long time. Jiang Wei was anxious, since he believed that Zhang He might attack the wooden door. So what are you waiting for, arrange a rescue wooden door immediately. The longer the delay, the more disadvantageous it becomes.

"Prime Minister, if Zhang He takes that road to Mumen, it will take him at least three days, and we still have time." Jiang Wei walked behind Zhuge Liang: "We are only two hundred miles away from the wooden gate, if we march in a hurry." It will be there in two days, and you can get ahead of him. No matter how bad it is, you can also send someone to notify the people guarding the grain to strengthen their vigilance. ”

Zhuge Liang sighed lightly: "If we want to deal with 10,000 Wei troops, how many people do we need?" ”

"Fifteen thousand to twenty thousand is enough."

"With so many people moving, can you travel a hundred miles?" Zhuge Liang turned around. looked at Jiang Wei in frustration. "Moreover, with so many troop movements, can we hide it from Guo Huai's eyes? What if he comes out of the city? ”

Jiang Wei was speechless. Obviously, Zhuge Liang had already thought of the problems he could think of, but Zhuge Liang thought of them, but he didn't think of them.

If you can't save it, if you don't save it, you will definitely die, and in the blink of an eye, the battle situation has become very unfavorable to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a long time, and suddenly turned around: "Boyo, gather the generals to discuss the matter, and immediately invite Ma Dai to see me." ”

Jiang Wei was stunned for a moment, immediately understood what Zhuge Liang meant, and turned around to ask. After a short time, Ma Dai hurried over, and saluted Zhuge Liang with a somewhat nervous face: "Prime Minister? ”

"Ji Shan." Zhuge Liang took Ma Dai's hand and walked to the map, Ma Dai was a little flattered, Zhuge Liang had never been so close to any of his subordinates. is the most trusted Ma Tan with him, and he also holds the dignity and humility in front of everyone. "Ji Shan, there is a heavy task related to the survival of my Shu Kingdom that will be handed over to you, you ...... Can it be done? ”

Ma Dai's face suddenly swelled red, although he didn't have blood boiling, his voice trembled a little: "The prime minister has an order, and he will never give up." ”

"Well, I'll give you all the cavalry in the camp, and all the horses, and you will rush to the wooden gate immediately."

"This ......" Ma Dai looked at Zhuge Liang with some uneasiness. In addition to the Ma family's army, the Shu army did not have a formed cavalry, only the personal guards of each general had a limited number of war horses, plus spare war horses, all of which added up to less than a thousand, Zhuge Liang handed over all these to him, which was a great trust. In other words, this task must also be a matter of life and death. He paused, bowed down and took the order: "Oh! ”

"Go ahead." Zhuge Liang stroked Ma Dai's back, pushed him out of the door, and said as he walked: "When the first emperor besieged Liu Zhang in Chengdu, he couldn't attack it for a long time, and the hussar general arrived on horseback, and the city was terrified. Today, you will inherit the legacy of the hussar general, save the building from the general, and the credit will not let the hussar general. ”

Ma Dai's heart was overjoyed, he bowed down again to thank him, turned around, and strode away.

Zhuge Liang turned around and went back to the tent, and as he walked, he instructed people to prepare hot water and porridge. He hadn't slept all night, and now his eyes were astringent, and his face was probably not much better, and if he didn't wash it with hot water, everyone would think that he was very depressed now. If you don't eat some breakfast and replenish your strength, you will be low in qi when you speak, and others will also see his weakness.

This is not something that can be seen by others, whether it is benign or malicious.

The guards have served Zhuge Liang for a long time, and they have long been accustomed to Zhuge Liang gathering after a sleepless night. They quickly brought hot water and cloth towels, soaked the cloth towels in the hot water, wrung them half-dry, and handed them to Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang took it and covered his face. The heat was steaming, so hot that every clogged pore was singing, and the depression brought by a night of hard thinking was also reduced a lot. Thinking of the decision he had just made, Zhuge Liang's mood also became a little lighter.

After washing his face and eating two bowls of hot porridge, Zhuge Liang's face recovered a little, with more blood, and he looked in good spirits. When everyone at the meeting arrived, Zhuge Liang walked out of the back tent and stepped into the big tent steadily, few people thought that he had just spent another sleepless night.

Zhuge Liang glanced at everyone and waved his hand gently. Jiang Wei took a step forward and announced the news that the military rations had arrived at Mumen and that they would be able to reach the camp within two days.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. That's the good news. The two armies confronted each other, and if there was food, they did not panic.

"The generals must have known a little bit just now." Zhuge Liang said unhurriedly, his gaze swept over the faces of the somewhat indignant generals. "The army has not moved, and the grain and grass go first. I think anyone knows very well the importance of these grains and grasses to our army. In order to ensure the safety of this batch of military rations, I temporarily transferred all the war horses to Ma Dai. I'm sure you can understand my intentions. ”

Hearing the word "temporary", many generals breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now there are 5,000 people and horses guarding the grain, plus more than 2,000 horses of Ma Dai, which is already considered safe. But. To be all in shackles, I'm going to send another 10,000 people to meet it. Zhuge Liang paused and pointed out the names of the two generals: "Gao Shen." Chan style. ”

Gao Shen and Chen Shi hurriedly came out and responded with fists.

"Take 10,000 men to the wooden gate, be careful along the way. Send more scouts to send the news back to the camp at any time. ”

Gao Shen and Chen Shi agreed violently.

Xiang Lang wanted to speak and stopped, his eyebrows furrowed slightly. Seeing this, Liao Hua got up and asked, "Prime Minister, protect the safety of grain and grass." It is beyond reproach that the safety of our army is at stake. However, our army is confronting the Wei army, and the troops are not sufficient, so we will send another 10,000 people to attack if Zhang He comes. So what? ”

Zhuge Liang smiled slightly: "Yuan Jian, I have been waiting for Zhang He to attack for a few days." He traveled back and forth between Shangqi and Luomen, but refused to attack, and his heart was visible. I sent 10,000 people to escort the grain and grass, on the one hand, to ensure the safety of the grain and grass, and on the other hand, I hoped that Zhang He would attack. ”

Liao Hua was puzzled: "Prime Minister, this is ...... Showing weakness? ”

"Exactly." Zhuge Liang nodded, but sighed in his heart. He didn't completely comfort Zhang He, he did do this because he did hope that Zhang He would attack his camp. Zhang He attacked his battalion, and his worries were superfluous.

Liao Hua didn't ask anymore, since this was Zhuge Liang's trick to lure the enemy, then he couldn't say that you were definitely not Zhang He's opponent. In fact, although he was not as confident as Zhuge Liang, he also did not believe that Zhang He could quickly defeat Zhuge Liang's main force with only 10,000 tired troops. After all, Zhuge Liang's ability in arranging formations is still obvious to all.

Zhuge Liang looked around and raised his voice. "Ladies and gentlemen, Zhang He has lost his ground, neither dare to fight in Shangqi, nor dare to enter Luomen. He came from afar, and there was no food and grass, and in a few days, he would collapse without a fight. However, this is the first battle of our Northern Expedition, and when we have not completed the whole work, we must not ignore it, so as not to lose a big one because of a small loss. I also hope that you will unite sincerely, unite as one, revive the Han Dynasty, and live up to the last wish of the emperor. ”

Everyone stood up and made a promise. No matter what attitude they had towards Liu Bei, since Zhuge Liang had lifted Liu Bei out, of course they didn't dare to be careless.

After discussing some more things, Zhuge Liang announced the end. He left Fei Yi behind.

"Wen Wei, you go to Jiangling immediately."

"Gangneung?" Fei Yi was taken aback, "Sun Quan has arrived in Jiangling?" ”

"Hmm." In front of Fei Yi, Zhuge Liang did not brace hard, and his exhaustion was fully revealed. He rubbed his temples and sighed: "Our army's Northern Expedition captured Guanzhong in one fell swoop, which is really a great feat, not only Cao Rui panicked and poured the country to attack, but even Sun Quan couldn't sit still." The Han-Wu alliance has the intention of disintegrating, and our army is facing the danger of fighting on two fronts. You go to Jiangling and tell the truth about our army, so that Sun Quan can rest assured and don't be deceived by Cao Rui. ”

Fei Yi's scalp exploded, Zhuge Liang said it very simply, but he heard the strong killing intent in it. If Sun Quan joins forces with Cao Rui, then Shu Han will really be in the autumn of survival. No wonder Zhuge Liang didn't accept Xiang Lang's suggestion to retreat to Longshan, he probably thought of this a long time ago.

"Well, I'll leave immediately, and I'll hold Sun Quan back as much as possible."

Zhuge Liang nodded. He also knew that at this moment, whether he could say that Sun Quan could be moved, Fei Yi's responsibility was heavy. No one dares to guarantee it, after all, Sun Quan is not a foolish person, he has his own judgment. Fei Yi said that it was not easy to hold him back as much as possible.

Fei Yi turned to leave, and Zhuge Liang immediately ordered Ma Jian to pass the book, let him leave Luomen, and take the initiative to attack Zhang He with a tough attitude. As long as Zhang He can be entangled, even if the casualties are larger, it is worth it.
