Chapter 187 Zhuge Shock
"Squeak!"
The door of the courtyard opened again, and the child ran out breathlessly. The original pink jade face was full of sweat. The child gasped for a while before looking at Zhao Xi and others, "Sir, please come in."
The child stretched out his pink arm and pushed the door open and said, "Sir, only three people can go in."
"Okay, I'll just go in alone." Zhao Xi said gratefully to the child.
The child led Zhao Xi into the courtyard door and soon came to the bamboo house. At this time, the young man had lowered his head to read the book again without the slightest intention of getting up. The child was about to report that he was pulled over by Zhao Xi. Seeing the child looking at him doubtfully, Zhao Xi shook his head and bowed and waited.
Before coming, Liu Qi combined some things in the history books. There were many examples of doing this in the history books. Liu Qi told Zhao Xi how to do it. Naturally, Zhao Xi would not come forward to disturb him. He arched his hand to signal the child to leave first, and Zhao Xi stood upright.
As time passed, the young man did not mean to stop at all, and Zhao Xi just bowed and waited, but there was a faint sweat on his forehead. Unconsciously, it was approaching noon. The spring sun should have been warm on people, but Zhao Xi was sweating like rain, and even his back was soaked. Zhao Xi felt that his whole body was numb.
"Huh? Who are you?" The young man finally raised his head and asked doubtfully.
"Wow!"
Zhao Xi exhaled, moved his numb body a little, bowed and said, "Come to visit Mr. Zhuge by the order of the lord."
"Oh, but that Jingzhou Liu Qi?" The young man suddenly asked as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Exact" Zhao Xi said respectfully.
"Children!" The young man shouted out of the door.
"Sir." The child ran over and looked at Zhao Xi with some admiration before bowing.
"Take the hero down to have a rest first, and then take him to the living room." The young man turned a blind eye to the child's movements and got up and left after ordering.
"Sir, wait a minute." Zhao Xi stepped forward and said.
"What else do you have to do?" The young man turned around and said doubtfully.
Zhao Xi took out a piece of cloth towel from his arms and respectfully handed it to the young man and said, "This is a letter that my lord asked me to forward to my husband."
"Oh, bring it here." The child took the cloth towel and ran to the young man and gave the cloth towel to the young man.
Seeing the cloth towel in the hands of the young man, Zhao Xi saluted the young man before leaving with the child.
"A letter?" The young man looked at the cloth towel in his hand and was a little puzzled. Is there such a big letter? This cloth towel is folded together, thick and obviously does not look like a letter.
The young man picked up the letter from afar and came to the study. This study was very large. In the room, there was a pile of bamboo slips. There were more than a dozen maps hanging on the wall, and the arrows on the ground drawings were clearly staggered.
The young man put the bamboo slips aside and came to the table. He hesitated to spread the cloth towel in his hand on the table. The square cloth towel filled the whole table. He pressed the cloth towel with bamboo slips casually, and the young man looked at the cloth towel.
"This..." The young man was shocked just by looking at it.
After a while, the young man woke up and took a deep breath. The young man got up and found a cloth towel from a pile of cloth towels in the corner. The young man quickly walked to the table with a cloth towel and opened the cloth towel in his hand to compare the contents on the two cloth towels.
I saw that the lines on the two cloth towels are clear. There are mountains, streams and rivers. It is clearly a map of Kyushu, but this is not the reason that shocked the young people. The arrows on the map point to the cities, and the cities are conquered under the lines, from Jingzhou to Yizhou to Hanzhong. On these maps The arrow is almost exactly the same as the arrow on the map in the young man's hand. Even if there is a difference, it does not affect the overall situation at all.
The young man looked at the two maps and his face changed. He didn't know whether he was worried or happy. He had been familiar with this map for a long time. It took him a lot of effort to decide. He had carefully considered each of the arrows, and he had never shown this map to anyone, not even his wife.
But the map spread out on the table is no different from the map in his hand, which can be imagined as a blow to him. It took him countless efforts to come up with the final strategy, but it turned out that others had come up with it.
At this moment, even he was a little suspicious of his knowledge, but the young man finally woke up after a period of confusion, and his eyes were full of firmness.
"Stepping..."
The footsteps sounded, and the young man looked up at the door. He saw a plump young woman in plain white clothes. The young woman covered her face and her eyes were soft and calm, and she slowly walked with a cup of tea in her hand. The walking is charming and elegant, beautiful and free from vulgarity, which makes people reluctant to look away.
However, after just taking a look, the young man fell into meditation again. There seemed to be all kinds of difficult things in his frown and eyes. With a green face, he gave people a sense of youth and old age.
Seeing the young man's reaction, there was a trace of doubt in the young woman's eyes. She couldn't figure out what made it so difficult for him to let go. When has the husband, who has always been calm and confident, ever looked like this? Thinking of this, a smile flashed across the beautiful face of the young woman's face under the scarf.
The young woman slowly walked to the young man without saying anything. She gently put the tea cup in her hand on the empty desk not far from the young man. After that, she came to the young man's side, knelt down beside the young man, and looked sideways at the cloth towel in the young man's hand.
The young man did not react at all to the young woman's movements, or he had adapted to the existence of the young woman. The young man sometimes looked at the cloth towel and sometimes looked at the wall, and his eyebrows frowned and relaxed, as if he was thinking about something big.
"What?" A soft voice of doubt interrupted the young man's meditation.
"What's the matter?" The young man did not blame the young woman for interrupting her meditation. He was even relieved and looked at the young woman softly.
There was a touch of apology in the young woman's eyes, and then the red lips under the scarf opened slightly and exhaled like an orchid: "Are these two maps different?"
"Oh." The young man looked down at the two maps in his hand again. This time, he looked very carefully and looked at all the top and bottom of the map.
The young man turned his head, looked at the young woman gratefully, and then looked at the map on the desktop again. It turned out that the front of the two maps could be said to be no different, but the second half was very different.
On his map, after occupying Yizhou and capturing Hanzhong, he will fall into a long pause until the third point of the world. The map on the desktop did not stop after occupying Hanzhong, but went north to occupy Tianshui County, and then turned to the northwest to occupy Liangzhou. At this time, the young man found that Yizhou and Liangzhou were only separated by one Tianshui County. As long as they occupied Tianshui County, the road to Liangzhou could be opened.
This discovery made young people overjoyed. From here on, the arrows on the map are completely different from the arrows on his map.
I have been looking at the map on the desktop and sighing, "Haha, I didn't expect that there would be such a wizard. If it can be realized, then this force can span the north and south of Kyushu. It is simply unimaginable."
However, the young man frowned and said, "But this is too risky. Yizhou and Liangzhou are only separated from Tianshui County. If Tianshui County is cut off, then we can't take care of each other at the beginning and end. However, this defect is so obvious that he must have seen it. Only by placing heavy soldiers and good generals in Tianshui County to guard it can there be no Worry about the future."
"My husband is not happy. Let's drink this ginseng tea first. It will be cold in a while." The young woman didn't know when she had brought the tea cup before the young man.
"Okay, my wife has a heart." The young man took the tea cup with a happy face and drank it all.
"It's you." Seeing that the young man was drinking in such a hurry, the young woman took the teacup and put it aside.
The young man smiled awkwardly and pulled the young woman in front of him, pointed to the map on the desktop and said, "What do you think of these two maps? Which one is better?"
After carefully looking at the two maps, the young woman pointed to the map on the desktop and said, "Although my husband drew it very well, I still think this map is better."
The young man was not surprised at the young woman who said that he drew it. He looked at the young woman with a smile and waited for her to continue.
"This map is step by step. Although the effect is slow, it is not easy to make mistakes when being cautious. This must be your husband's. This map was almost the same as my husband's before, but the back is very different. The back part of the map is too different from the front part. The back part has many adventures, but the results are extremely fast. If that map can be realized, I still have a greater chance of this map. The young woman pointed to the map on the table.
"Why?" The young man smiled and asked.
"Although my husband's map is cautious, it is not without defects. According to the description above, although it can be in the southwest, if there is a loss in Jingzhou, it will close itself without any development. Moreover, the southern cavalry is not as good as the northern cavalry at all, and the second map solves this problem. As long as it occupies Liangzhou, there will be far-reaching horses, and both the south and the north will have a certain advantage. And after the second map occupies Liangzhou, it can overlook Kyushu and take the initiative to take full control of it. After saying that, the young woman's face became soft again, and there was no awe on the river just now.
After listening to the young woman's analysis, the young man sighed and said, "Well, I also think so. Before I saw this picture, I always thought my picture was the most perfect. I didn't expect that there was a day outside. I was too arrogant. What do you think will happen if you work with such a person?
