The words are divided into two ends.

Zhuge Jin's side, after leaving the Zhendong General's Mansion, he immediately rode home.

Turning the last street corner, I saw Song and Song Xin looking at the door with concern.

Zhuge Jin hurriedly added a whip, turned over and dismounted in front of the door, and shared the good news of "Liu Bei promised to send troops to escort them" with his family, so that they could rest early, so that they could recuperate and hurry.

Song looked concerned: "Where are you going to rest, haven't you had dinner yet?" Eat some before you sleep. ”

Zhuge Jin: "When the envoy and I talked about the military plane, we ate it together, and my mother didn't have to worry about it." ”

Song was persuaded by him and had to go to bed first.

And Song Xin heard that his nephew was so capable, and he could make Liu Bei pay so much attention, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in his heart, and he had to help Zhuge Jin pick up some chores.

Zhuge Jin couldn't bear to brush off the other party's kindness, so he asked him to spread paper and polish ink, and then boil a bucket of bath soup. After doing this, Song Xin went to rest with peace of mind.

The social status of the Song family is much lower than that of the Zhuge family, otherwise the Song family would not have renewed the strings of Zhuge Jue, who was twenty years old.

Moreover, when Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou, the rest of the Song family was wiped out, leaving Song Xin alone to defect to the widowed sister. He also knew his situation, and as the servants gradually dispersed on the way to escape, the daily household chores could only be handled by him, the butler.

……

After sending his family to rest, Zhuge Jin soaked in the bathtub, only to feel that the tense nerves were soothed, the blood circulation in the head was accelerated, and even his intelligence was briefly blessed.

He has only been traveling for a few hours, and has been pushed forward by the crisis of life and death, and now he can finally take a long-term view of the current situation.

In his previous life, he taught mathematics, so when he did things, he liked to be meticulous, draw quadrant diagrams, classify and investigate all possibilities, and then make a choice.

Of course, his history and political knowledge are also very good, after all, he has been in education and training institutions for many years, and he has a wide range of interests, and he is exposed to it every day.

In their line of work, there is a famous saying, "Poor math is stupid, poor English is lazy", as long as those who teach mathematics have a wide range of interests, don't be lazy, liberal arts are generally not bad.

At this moment, he inevitably picked up a hairpin pen and a wooden stick, drew a cross quadrant diagram casually, and calculated it in the bathtub. "Liu Bei promised to send troops to escort us out of the city, and our safety is finally guaranteed, but where should I go?

Wu Jun will definitely not go, although Sun Quan in history reuses me, but the Sun family's internal fighting is too powerful, and in the end, Ke'er was also involved in the internal fighting, and it is impossible for me to have a good personal relationship with the leader like Zhuge Jin in history.

And Cao Cao has a grudge against his mother and uncle, so he doesn't have to think about it at all. It seems that all my ways to lie flat have been blocked, and I have to do something big. ”

Zhuge Jin thought about it, so he first crossed out the two quadrants under "lying flat", that is, "voting for Cao" and "voting for other separatists". The two quadrants on the other side belong to "doing something big", including the auxiliary Han and the usurper.

Then he continued to think: "If you give up this opportunity to escape and continue to assist Liu Bei, with Liu Bei's strength, even if you escape this catastrophe, will you be able to fight your way out of Cao Yuan and Lu Bu's cracks in the future?"

I can come up with a strange plan now, because I know history, and once Liu Bei's fortune trajectory completely changes, my prophetic effect will be greatly reduced.

Liu Bei in history, but he has been tossing and turning for many years, until he met Zhuge Liang. If he doesn't go to Jingzhou in this life, will he still meet Zhuge Liang? ”

Thinking of this, Zhuge Jin suddenly realized a blind spot - now he is Zhuge Liang's eldest brother!

In this case, you can escape from Huaiyin City first, find a way to go to Jingzhou to find the second brother to meet, and then think about it in the long run!

Brothers work together to break gold, this is the biggest golden finger that they have crossed to the end of the Han Dynasty!

At that time, no matter whether history has changed or not, if it has not changed, it will rely on its own prophet, and if it changes, it will rely on the true talent and practical learning of the second brother to help the staff together, which is called invincible.

If Liu Bei really wants to invite him, he has to invite his second brother together.

So it was decided.

After thinking about this, Zhuge Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then he felt that the bath water was already a little cold.

He wiped his clothes and changed clothes, but he couldn't help but continue to make up for his brain:

"If I can meet with my second brother, and my uncle Zhuge Xuan now seems to have a name for Yuzhang County as expressed by Liu Biao, is it possible for the Zhuge family to directly end up fighting for hegemony?"

In his previous life, after all, he was an open-minded educator, and he did not worship any ancient empire, and he was not a fan of any earthling.

Therefore, when this thought flashed, Zhuge Jin didn't feel that it was too rebellious. Instead, he calmly proceeded from his personal interests and the general interests of the nation, and thought about it comprehensively and prudently.

Then he quickly realized that it was now the Jian'an period, and it was a little late to start from scratch.

On the other hand, even if it wasn't too late, he had to weigh the far-reaching influence of the usurpation.

When he read history in his previous life, he thought about a question: Why did the Wei, Jin, and Six Dynasties and the Five Dynasties and the Two Song Dynasties change dynasties so quickly and there are so many local divisions?

Later, he came up with the idea that whether a regime's legitimacy is scarce enough and whether it is right is important for long-term stability.

If a regime has conquered foreign races, resisted foreign enemies, or rescued a subject nation with cultural superiority in the process of establishing it.

Then it will be easier for the people of the world to endure its rule, and there is less need to worry about the cruelty of loyalty and self-destruction.

And if you just rely on your fists and wantonly change the emperor's surname, you will have no other merits. Then the scarcity of the legitimacy of the rule will be messed up, and it will become "the monk can't touch me", and "the Son of Heaven will do it for the strong and strong".

Cao Pi and Zhu Wen did not understand this problem, and the wind of usurpation and civil war intensified for hundreds of years.

Therefore, it is not that the dynasty cannot be changed.

Instead, the change of dynasty must wait for a suitable opportunity and reason, so that it will be difficult for future generations to imitate, so as to ensure that the interests of the nation are maximized and they can sit for a long time.

Otherwise, if you can't control the situation and forcibly usurp it, and finally become the second and die and the whole family will be wiped out, it is better not to be in power.

Zhuge Jin is now standing at the starting point of the "First Serial Usurpation Period in China", and he doesn't want to open Pandora's box with his own hands.

I believe that in history, his second brother Zhuge Liang's life choice, in addition to "the death of a confidant", should also think of this layer. After all, Zhuge Liang's IQ is there, and it is hard to imagine that Zhuge Liang's pursuit is purely just for "An Han Xing Liu".

Of course, there is another point that must be made clear, Zhuge Jin, as a person with modern education, the above-mentioned jealousy in his heart is only a chain reaction brought about by the usurpation of warlords and powerful ministers, but he does not mind the peasant uprising.

Because he knew that a peasant uprising would not lead to a breakdown of trust and the way of social organization.

The peasants have not eaten the imperial court, there is no obligation of loyalty, and if they really can't survive, they will do a vote, which is just pure interests and then reshuffle, and life and death depend on their ability.

……

Just as Zhuge Jin was about to figure out this truth, there was a loud thunder outside the house, and then a torrential rain suddenly came, interrupting his thoughts.

He hurriedly put on his clothes and shoes, walked to the eaves, looked up at the electric light, and suddenly his heart moved:

Before crossing by himself, wasn't he angry and composing poetry and being struck by lightning? That being the case, now that there are still a few traces of resignation in my heart, then write another poem, and I should ask the sky to buy a hexagram and ask for peace of mind.

"Well, if the will of heaven does not require me to create Yan Han again, when this poem is written, please send thunder to help me return to modern times. If there is no thunder to fall, it will be considered that God wants me to assist Han. ”

Zhuge Jin thought silently in his heart, thought about it, and then wrote the dragon and snake:

"The emperor is like an adulterer, and the world is like a woman and a child.

Qin Sui didn't know mercy and blindly humiliated first.

was killed in a panic, and Fang began to sympathize with the suffering of the people.

At the beginning of the Han and Tang dynasties, he was cautious, and he fell in love and then entered.

Living together for six or seven generations, tired and insulting.

The world is unbearable, and they join forces to kill their husbands.

The husband can be killed, and the concubine is even more righteous.

Wei, Jin, Song, Qiliang, Zhao, Guo, Liu, Shizhu.

Two, three, four, five marriages, one by one.

Only by foreign enemies, the world will be recast.

The nation is reunited, and the heart is as pure as ever.

Therefore, only the Han and Tang dynasties have been favored for a long time. ”

Later, the ink gradually ran out, and the strokes were already flying white everywhere, as if to weep about the suffering of the civil war that had accumulated for thousands of years in later generations.

Zhuge Jin still forcibly carried the pen and did it in one go. After writing, he threw it on the oil lamp, burned the manuscript to worship the sky, and closed his eyes to recuperate.

Suddenly, the sound of rolling came from far and near.

"Are you really waiting for the thunder?" Zhuge Jin suddenly opened his eyes and wanted to confirm.

But in the next second, the voice stopped when it reached the courtyard gate, and was replaced by a knock on the door and shouting: "Mr. Ziyu! The lord has important matters to ask for advice and implore to come to the house. ”

Zhuge Jin was stunned for a moment, and then he mistook the horse's hooves for thunder.

It seems that Providence is also begging him to recreate Yan Han.

He personally went over to open the door, and Sun Gan outside the door hurriedly made a gesture and confessed: "There is a disturbance to Mr. Qing's dream!" What a shame! Please sir get on the bus quickly! ”

Before Zhuge Jin could speak, the Song family in the inner room was also woken up and sent Song Xin out to investigate.

Zhuge Jin dusted off the hem of his clothes and said indifferently: "Let my mother rest assured, it will definitely make Jun Shengyi fist, and if you want to arrange more guards tomorrow, I will come when I go." ”

Sun Qian listened to him help cover up, and felt more and more that this gentleman was calm and extraordinary. After waiting for the carriage to go a hundred and ten steps, Sun Qian gave up his hand and sighed:

"It's not a secret, I came to disturb all night, it's because something happened in Xuzhou. Cao Bao colluded with Lu Buri to cooperate with the outside world and took Xiapi! Sir, what a miracle! ”

Of course, Zhuge Jin was not surprised, but there was a sense of fateful powerlessness: "Is that really the case?" Tonight? ”

I had already reminded Liu Bei, but unfortunately it was too late.

In good conscience, this is undoubtedly a major blow to Liu Bei. But for Zhuge Jin, it is an opportunity.

Because he can obviously rely on this divine prophecy, he can immediately gain Liu Bei's full trust and get a stage to show his words and plans.

Just like at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Song Yi made Qi on the way, and accurately predicted that Xiang Liang would be defeated, so he was named the general and the champion of the prince by Huaiwang Xiongxin.

It's just that I don't know if I can have hard power, seize this opportunity, and prove myself thoroughly - Song Yi in history, although God prophesied to the throne, he may not have the ability to break the rules and leave the king, so in the end he was tragedies by Xiang Yu.

And Sun Gan on the side, seeing that Zhuge Jin was just groaning and sighing, but his expression was not wavering, he admired it even more.

What composure! Not only could he expect Zhang Fei to leave Pi, but he was not even surprised at all when he heard the news.

In contrast, when he and Mi Zhu first heard the nightmare, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and they couldn't speak for a long time.

That's the gap! Sure enough, it's the wind of the great sage!

Now I can only hope that Mr. will come up with a strange plan to help the lord turn the crisis into safety.

……

The carriage galloped all the way and soon came to the shogunate of the shogunate.

Zhuge Jin was led by Sun Gan's umbrella and went straight into the inner courtyard, and saw Liu Guanzhang and the three people in the hall with solemn expressions and speechless expressions.

When Liu Bei saw him coming, he took the lead in going out of the house to greet him, ignoring the rain, and sighed in the court:

"I didn't know if I was foolish, I still doubted Mr.'s concerns, but I didn't expect it to come true so soon. To tell the truth, now Xiapi has been lost, the family has been trapped, and the grain and grass for backup have been cut off. I wonder if Mr. has a good solution to this desperate situation? ”

Rao is Zhuge Jin was mentally prepared, but Liu Bei's corporal posture of Lixian still surprised him.

After all, Liu Bei is in the high position of the general of the four towns, even if he is in a difficult situation, he can bow down to a white Ding in the rain, which is not something ordinary people can do.

But Zhuge Jin didn't have the certainty of breaking the game, and Liu Bei was completely wiped out in the end in this battle in history, which was too difficult.

There are some ugly things Zhuge Jin must say clearly first, so he stepped forward and returned the favor, and had a sincere showdown:

"In the next Bai Ding, although he has skimmed the art of war, he has never been in battle, how dare he bear the heavy trust of the general? Among the shogunate, there must be many strategists, why not work together to find a way to recover? ”

Liu Bei saw that it was inconvenient to speak in the rain, so he pulled Zhuge Jin back to the hall, patted the back of his hand again, and said:

"Gongyou and Zizhong both advised me to take advantage of the fact that the army's morale is not yet weakened, and take the initiative to fight, but Yuan Shu's army is several times stronger than our army after all, and I originally planned to rely on the strong city to exhaust the enemy, but now I am forced to fight quickly, I am afraid that the chance of victory is not great. If the gentleman has another good plan to survive this catastrophe, he will not forget the great kindness of the gentleman. ”

Zhuge Jin listened very carefully, and also noticed that his previous reminder had taken effect - Liu Bei in history, after hearing that Pi was stolen, he panicked and failed to block the news. When I wanted to fight to the death again, I had no heart to fight.

And now, although the fact that Xiapi was stolen has not changed, Liu Bei finally thought of blocking the news as soon as possible.

The troops in Huaiyin City still don't know about it, at least the military heart is available, then there is still a glimmer of life.

And Sun Qian and Mi Zhu thought of "seizing the time difference between the army's hearts and fighting quickly" can be regarded as the right way of war.

As long as this strategy is implemented, even if you still don't win in the end, you can't blame the strategists. You can only blame the generals for having no command or too weak troops.

And if you have to make a surprise move, take a risk, and win the battle, everything is easy to say. If you lose, all the blame can easily be blamed on the strategists.

Zhuge Jin knew that in this battle in history, Liu Bei was beaten by Yuan Shu in the end, and it was almost annihilated.

It was only because Mi Zhu later sponsored him another 2,000 servants, plus 100 million yuan in military expenses, that Liu Bei could barely regroup and pull up the team.

Although I plan to assist Han with my heart, but now this time to cut in, it is really unlucky to the extreme, and it can even be said that I picked up an extremely hot potato as soon as I got started.

Even if he tried his best, he might only turn the fiasco into a small one. If you want to completely turn the tables, it will be difficult to climb the sky.

There is Yuan Shu in the west, Lu Bu in the north, and Sun Ce in the south, but the sea in the east. How desperate it is to be surrounded by strong enemies and cut off military rations???

If he fails to turn the tables in the end, will Liu Bei miss him? Can you know his contributions? Will it even affect Liu Bei's sense of Zhuge Liang in the future?

Zhuge Jin, who has been in the workplace for more than ten years, is used to seeing too many leaders who have taken credit and pushed him, and he can't help but worry about these back-to-back problems.

After all, many things are not clear about cause and effect, and winning or losing a battle is the result of a complex combination of many factors.

Even if you win, some waste in the team is hugging your thighs, and even if you lose, there are some resourceful people in the team who really contribute, and you can't judge heroes by success or failure.

Liu Bei saw that he was silent, but he didn't urge, just thought about it carefully. After all, Zhuge Jin has no obligation to help him, and his willingness to come is already a very big favor.

And Guan Yu on the side had not had in-depth communication with Zhuge Jin before, and Zhang Fei had never even seen him.

They didn't know Zhuge Jin's intelligence, and they couldn't help but be anxious when they saw him silent.

Especially Guan Yu, he thought that Zhuge Jin was still angry in his heart because of the little conflict in the morning.

After all, at the gate of Beicheng at the time, Guan Yu was in a hurry and almost pulled him off the horse.

Seeing that the eldest brother was so humble and anxious at this moment, Guan Yu gritted his teeth, stepped forward and made a sudden gesture, almost more than ninety degrees, and said in a loud voice:

"Mr. Ziyu! Where Guan offended before, he still looks at Haihan! As long as you can solve today's difficulties, but ask for something in the future, Guan will definitely be duty-bound! ”

And Zhang Fei, who caused trouble, was even more temperamental at the moment, and when he saw that the second brother, who had always been quite arrogant in front of the scholars, had expressed his attitude, he didn't say a word, and directly knelt down and pleaded: "Please give me advice!" ”

Zhuge Jin couldn't help but be taken aback, didn't think about it anymore, and hurriedly subconsciously helped Guan Yu first, then pulled Zhang Fei up, and said sincerely:

"It's not that I'm unwilling to help, it's really that the situation is so dangerous that there is no way to win, and if you want to turn the tide of the war, you have to take risks. And I have only just met the general, and I don't know much about the enemy's military strength, so I don't dare to say anything. ”

Speaking of which, with Liu Bei's emotional intelligence, he finally realized Zhuge Jin's concerns.

He hurriedly took Zhuge Jin's hand and shook it a few times, and said in his heart: "Mr. has concerns, and he knows everything." Sir has something to know, but it doesn't hurt to ask, be prepared to know.

And Mr. doesn't have to worry about the outcome of this battle, as long as the strategy is reasonable and ready to be adopted, everything will naturally be borne by Beiyi, how can it affect others?

Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and if this battle can be won, it is naturally Mr. Well-planned. If it is defeated, it is only to blame the incompetence of the reserve army and the lack of strength, and it is by no means that the strategy of the gentleman is not good. ”

Liu Bei's tone was very sincere.

It's like Zhang Wuji, who has just learned Taijiquan for half an hour, and said to his opponent, "I may not be able to beat you with one move with this set of boxing techniques, but this is because I am not good at learning, not that this martial arts is not good."

Zhuge Jin was finally slightly moved, feeling that he had somewhat integrated into the ancient society.

In the 21st century, in a legal society where the rules are analyzed in detail and the rights and responsibilities are confirmed, it is simply unimaginable that this kind of all-encompassing responsibility, with all the credit and responsibility going to the contributor and the responsibility going all to one's own boss. Even if there is, it will be quickly hollowed out by employees who calculate the details of KPIs.

But in the era when the ancient style of Xinyi still existed, all this seemed less unreal.

Even so, Zhuge Jin also decided to try to wave it and say whatever he wanted.
