Chapter 16 Finally Appreciated by the Prime Minister
When Zhang Meng heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Which big man is it?" ”
"Hehehehe, Prime Minister! The prime minister is here, and I have told the prime minister about you, and the prime minister is very happy, come in, come in! Zhao Yun said and introduced Zhang Meng into the Chinese army's big tent.
The sky outside was bright, and as soon as I entered the tent, I saw that it was a little dim inside. When Zhang Meng entered the tent to take a look, he saw a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties standing in the middle of the tent, tall, wearing a towering Buddha's hand hat, wearing a loose long robe, holding a goose feather fan in one hand, and holding a beard on his chin with the other, with a kind face, looking at himself with a smile.
When Zhang Meng saw it, he shouted in a lost voice: "Oh, isn't this Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng?" There was a burst of nervousness in his heart, and then he let go of his mood and said to himself: "I finally ran to the steps of Prime Minister Zhuge . This is something that I have dreamed of before and after crossing! At this point, he quickly knelt down and gave a three-bow and nine-bow salute, and shouted in his mouth: "The last general, Zhang Meng, meet the Prime Minister!" ”
Zhuge Liang saw it, and gently ordered: "Excuse me, be flat, come here, and come here to talk." As he spoke, he put Zhang Meng on the cushion and sat on the cushion on the right side of the case.
Zhang Meng got up but didn't sit down, and stood next to him, waiting for Zhuge Liang to ask.
Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang Meng's movements, nodded with a slight smile, and then gently praised Zhang Zhangmeng's bravery: "······ It was really good to kill four famous Xiliang generals in the first battle. Then he learned about Zhang Meng's family life and previous work from the side.
Seeing Zhang Meng's steady demeanor, refreshing speech, and a heroic and heroic atmosphere, Zhuge Liang liked Zhang Meng from his heart, so he changed the topic and asked Zhang Meng kindly: "I heard General Zilong say it just now, saying that you Zhang Meng has a special ability - predicting major events nine times out of ten, and you learned this skill from that master?" ”
Zhang Meng listened and knew that the time had come for the key point, and thought: "This question should be taken seriously, and not a little careless." When he thought of this, he said: "Where, where is it, Prime Minister, the last general will not predict, nor has he been taught by that master, everything is just based on his own hunch, feeling, how this thing or that thing will develop, what will be the result, and if you work hard in this direction, you will succeed." That's it, Prime Minister. ”
Zhuge Liang listened, pondered slightly, and said to himself: "Genius, genius, this person, some people have special functions, and special functions can also become special functions, well, special functions are geniuses." Speaking of this, he looked up at Zhao Yun and asked, "Zilong, did you say it?" ”
Zhao Yun listened, just smiled inexplicably, nodded and said, "What the prime minister said is that he is a genius." ”
Zhuge Liang continued: "Zilong, don't believe it, a genius is a genius, and a natural talent is different from others. Well, actually, everyone is a genius, it's just that their talents are different.
Figuratively speaking, Zilong, you are also a genius, you are better than me, your strength is greater than me, and your kung fu is higher than me, this is your genius in this area!
Young man Zhang Meng can predict the cause and effect of events, which is better than us, and he is a genius in this regard. ”
Zhuge Liang was very interested at this time, and when he said this, he lowered his head and thought for a while, and asked Zhang Meng: "Zhang Meng, this, we sent troops to fight against Cao Wei this time, and the troops went out of Hanzhong, facing a strong enemy, and won an unprecedented victory. Defeated hundreds of thousands of Cao soldiers and captured the Cao soldiers alive, to be honest, it was really an unprecedented victory. ”
When Zhuge Liang said this, he stopped talking, looked at Zhang Meng, and then said: "Zhang Meng, you said that you rely on your own feelings to predict the progress, change, and development consequences of things. This is indeed a genius creation. However, the success of this campaign is only one aspect of success based on this feeling alone. Another point is self-confidence and courage. If the prediction is good, without special self-confidence and courage, and if we do not dare to carry out the battle, we will not succeed. Well, let me ask you, Zhang Meng, how did you get your extraordinary self-confidence and courage to soar to the sky? ”
When Zhang Meng heard this, he knew that Zhuge Liang had fallen in love with him, and he was investigating deeply. So as soon as the inspiration moved, he opened his mouth and said: "Prime Minister, where does the last general have any self-confidence and courage, and he doesn't understand these problems.
At that time, after predicting the process and outcome of the battle, I thought, 'Although there is a huge difference between our strength and the Wei soldiers, our Shu soldiers are an invincible iron army in the world led by Prime Minister Zhuge and personally commanded by General Zhao Yun. ”
To tell the truth, after Zhang Meng crossed over, he faced the complex reality and wanted to achieve his goal, and he had learned to slap the horse without a teacher. No, this confession just now made the old man Zhuge Liang comfortable for a while, and General Zhao Yun was also smiling with a goatee on the side.
When Zhang Meng saw it, he sighed in his heart: ", such a saint through the ages also likes to be flattered by others······ Oops, I've seen it again. ”
After Zhang Meng's flattering words were finished, Zhuge Liang also said to himself in his heart: "Well, this kid is young, not only has a set of leading soldiers to fight, but also is very good at talking!"
However, what do you say, 'The prime minister personally leads, Zhao Yun personally commands', I can lead, can't I command? Thinking of this, the smile on his face slowly faded, and his face was a little cold. Zhang Meng was very good at observing his words, seeing the change in Zhuge Liang's face, he knew what he was lacking in his ass, so he immediately changed his mouth and said: "Prime Minister, with your unified leadership and command, General Zhao Yun led the troops to fight, which is the fundamental reason for my Zhang Meng's self-confidence and courage!" ”
After Zhang Meng said this, he raised one arm, clenched his fist, and paused a few times, indicating that he was determined and resolutely loyal to Prime Minister Zhuge .
This was said appropriately, and Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun became comfortable.
So, Zhuge Liang gently shook the goose feather fan, wisped his beard in one hand, was silent for a while, and asked kindly: "Zhang Meng, in the face of the current military situation, you analyze, what should we do next?" ”
When Zhang Meng heard this, his heart moved, and he thought to himself: "The prime minister is continuing to investigate me." asked me what I should do next, in fact, the prime minister had already planned it in his heart, not asking me about the plan, but examining me. Thinking of this, he said: "Prime Minister, what should we do next, your old man has already planned." The last general also has a hunch, but he doesn't dare to say more, for fear of disrupting your strategic layout. ”2021.10.8
