Chapter 129: Civil and Military Talents

ps: The second update is here, please vote!

Zhuge Jin reported his name, but before he finished speaking, he just reported the surname "Zhuge", and almost knocked Yuan Mai to the ground.

"Are you Mr. Zhuge Kongming?" I couldn't help but blurted out a word.

If Sima Yi was an important figure who could rank among the top five in this era, then Zhuge Liang's status was even better than Sima. Faced with such a good talent in the mining world and a figure hailed by later generations as the incarnation of wisdom, how could Yuan Mai not be excited?

Perhaps, various novels in later generations, and even "Romance of the Romance" as a classic, exaggerated Zhuge Liang's talent, and even reached the point of "making up his wisdom is almost as monstrous as a demon". However, it is undeniable that Zhuge Liang was indeed an outstanding talent in this era, and it can even be said that he supported Western Shu for decades with his own strength. If Zhuge Liang had not devoted his efforts, Western Shu, which was located in a corner, would have long been dead.

Perhaps some people are dissatisfied with Zhuge's military talent, and perhaps there is doubt, but Zhuge's political talent in governing the country is undisputed. What is even more admirable is Zhuge Kongming's character, who devotes his whole life to his death, dies before he succeeds, and keeps the heroes full of tears. How can it not be admired!

Before the time travel, Zhuge Kongming, the three kingdoms that Yuan Mai admired the most, was one of them. At this moment, the living Zhuge Liang was standing in front of him. How could it not make people excited? Imagine that Zhuge left and Sima right, such a super invincible combination would be strange if he did not sweep the world. Imagine that he would not make people feel excited if he imagined that he would be able to win all the picturesque country?

"Uh... how did the young master know my second brother?" Zhuge Jin asked in confusion with surprise.

His second brother Zhuge Liang was seventeen years old. He followed his third brother Zhuge Xuan to Jingzhou to be an official in his uncle Zhuge Xuan five or six years ago. He was appointed as the prefect of Yuzhang by Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou. Later, the Grand Marshal Li Jue appointed Zhu Hao as the prefect of Yuzhang in the name of the emperor. Zhuge Xuan had no choice but to lead the Zhuge brothers to Nanyang, north of Xiangyang, to live in seclusion and cultivated land.

Two years ago, Zhuge Xuan died of illness. The Zhuge Liang and his brothers continued to make a living in Nanyang by farming land. They had a good relationship with local Confucian scholars such as Huang Chengyan, Shi Guangyuan, Meng Gongwei, Xu Yuanzhi, and Cuizhouping, so they continued to live in Nanyang. I have never heard of him traveling around Hebei. How did Mr. Yuan, who was from a famous family, know the name of his second brother, a mountain village man?

After hearing Zhuge Jin finish his words, Yuan Mai realized that he was making mistakes. This was not Zhuge Liang. But his elder brother Zhuge Jin, and he was immediately disappointed. Although Zhuge Jin was an outstanding talent, he was not a person of the same level as Zhuge Liang.

Fortunately, after half a year of training, Yuan Mai is already quite scheming. Although he is disappointed, it has not been revealed on the surface. Otherwise, Zhuge Jin would be embarrassed and feel uncomfortable.

"Uh... it turned out to be Zhuge Ziyu, I'm lucky to be happy!" Since I had already said the word "second son" and Yuan Mai simply mentioned the word "figure" of the eldest son.

Zhuge Jin was even more surprised. He was also an unknown person. How did Mr. Yuan know that he had written a word?

"Please forgive the people of Cao's heart. Jin has been reading in the cottage, farming in the fields, and has never met the prince. I wonder how the prince knows the names of my brothers?"

Yuan Mai had already figured out the answer and responded: "My father is familiar with Mr. Ling Zhuge Xuan. He once mentioned that he had two nephews in his family, both of whom were smart and smart, one was Zhuge Jin, the other was Zhuge Liang, and the other was Kongming. Therefore, he kept it in mind. I think there were not many people with the surname Zhuge in Langya, so he blurted out and guessed it, but he didn't expect it to be a coincidence."

Zhuge Jin is a real person. He thought that his uncle and Yuan Shao were both officials, so it is possible to know each other. He believed in Yuan Mai's words and bent down and bowed, "I actually bothered Yuan Jizhou to mention my brother's name. I was so frightened!"

After a brief conversation, Yuan Mai's mood quickly calmed down. Although the scholar in front of him was not Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin was also a good talent, especially his diplomatic talent, and he could be called an excellent diplomat during the Three Kingdoms period. He was in a time when he was short of people, and it was a great gain to be able to win over such a person!

People are not satisfied with their hardships, so when they get Long and look forward to Shu? When they get Zhuge Jin and look forward to Zhuge Liang?

Moreover, after taking Zhuge Jin, he had a connection with Zhuge Liang. Maybe one day he could use Zhuge Jin to fool the brother and form a super combination with Sima Yi. Although Yuan Mai also understood that with Zhuge Liang's calmness and wisdom, such hope was slim, as long as Zhuge Jin is there, there is hope!

In addition, there is another advantage after taking Zhuge Jin. If Zhuge Liang really becomes Liu Bei's military advisor in the future, he can use their brotherly relationship to join forces with Liu Bei and fight against the powerful Cao Cao group together, which is also a good way out.

"Mr. Ziyu is a talented man, why should you be polite? I don't know where to go?" After a brief weighing, Yuan Mai had already made up his mind and prepared to take Zhuge Jin under his command.

There are many people under his command, including Tian Feng, the military advisor type, Wang Shuang, the general type, Hao Zhao, the defensive type, Zhang Liao, the commander type, Tian Chou, the political type, Xu Sheng, the general type, and Zhou Cang, the bodyguard type, just lacks a diplomatic talent. Zhuge Jin's appearance just makes up for this shortcoming, which is really timely!

After hearing Yuan Mai’s question, Zhuge Jin explained: “The war in the north is endless, and I am eager to think about my son, fearing that Langya will not be at peace. A few days ago, I was invited by a friend from Jiangdong to go to Jiangdong to avoid the chaos and give birth to children.”

Yuan Mai finally understood. Zhuge Jin was planning to go to Jiangdong to have a child, but Qingzhou did not engage in family planning. Why did you go to another place to do? Fortunately, he came to Langya, otherwise Zhuge Ziyu would have been taken over by the Sun family. Moreover, Zhuge Jin's son will be considered a character in the future, and he can cultivate his second generation of power.

"Although Jiangdong is temporarily stable, it is not peaceful from Langya to Suwu. Xia Pi is in a row. The Cao army fought with Lu Bu's army for more than half a year. The Cao army even killed everyone, swearing to massacre all Xuzhou and avenge Cao's father. Moreover, many bandits on both sides of the Yangtze River killed and set fire. It is not easy to arrive in Jiangdong safely."

Yuan Mai looked at Zhuge Jin with a smile, first analyzing the difficulties, adding fuel to his words, so that Zhuge Jin could understand that this would be a difficult journey. Then he changed the subject and said, "Under the governance of his father, Jizhou has been peaceful in recent years. Mr. Ziyu doesn't have to go to Jiangdong. Follow me to Hanoi. There are many errands suitable for Mr. Ziyu to serve as a grand plan."

Zhuge Jin hesitated a little after hearing this: "Thank you, my son, for your love. Ran Jin is just a scholar, I'm afraid he will be entrusted by the son."

Yuan Mai held Zhuge Jin's hand and smiled and said, "Tiyu doesn't have to be humble. My father has learned about your knowledge long ago from Uncle Ling. Besides, my father and Lord Zhuge Xuan are the most close friends. If he lets him know that you are going to Jiangdong and I don't want to keep him, he will inevitably scold him. Therefore, Ziyu must buy some thin noodles."

Zhuge Jin thought about it, since his uncle and Yuan Shao were friends, he was also his family, so he didn't have to take the risk to Jiangdong. But he didn't know that Yuan Mai was talking nonsense. Yuan Benchu ​​was more jealous than the top and didn't know him as his uncle at all.

"Yes, Mr. Ziyu, since you and I are destined to be together. We are fellow villagers from the same county and country. You should stay here too. Let's assist Mr. Yuan and build great achievements together!" Xu Sheng also enthusiastically tried to keep Zhuge Jin. If a fellow villager could work hard together, he would be able to take care of him during his career.

In front of him, Mr. Yuan invited me to the heart, and in the back, Xu Sheng, the man who saved his life, enthusiastically tried to keep him. Zhuge Jin no longer refused and bowed and said, "Since the young master is loving, it is better to obey orders than respect. I am willing to obey orders!"

"Haha... OK, it's really a pleasure to get the help of both of you today. I will definitely drink it when I look back!"

Yuan Mai was very happy. Although he did not meet Zhuge Liang, he got a literary and military career all at once, which was a great joy. Moreover, these two guys came into the door without any effort. They could even be called "it took no time to get it". Good things come together and it should be revealed!

He met Zhuge Jin's wife Liu again. After a few greetings, Yuan Mai selected ten soldiers and ordered them to send Zhuge Jin and his party back to Kaiyang, Langya Metropolitan City, to enter the city for entertainment. After he defeated Cao's army, he went to the city for entertainment.

As soon as Zhuge Jin and his wife were sent away, the scout came to report: "Report, General Qu Yi's men are only six or seven miles away from here, and the Cao cavalry behind them are rushing to chase each other, and it is only fifteen or sixteen miles away from here!"

Yuan Mai nodded and ordered: "Go and notify General Qu, just say that I have ambushed on both sides of the valley, and ask him to urge the entire army to go quickly. When Cao's army chases us, all the ambushed on both sides will come out. General Qu will fight back again and will surely win a great victory!"

"No!" The scout got the order and turned over and went to inform Qu Yi again.

Yuan Mai pointed to the opposite side of the valley and said to Xu Sheng: "There are more than a thousand ambushers on the opposite side, and I will give you the command. Today is the time for you to make contributions!"

Unexpectedly, he had just surrendered to Yuan Jun and had the opportunity to make contributions. Xu Sheng was very excited and took the order and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Sheng will definitely kill the enemy with all his strength and repay him with all his might!" After saying that, he took the general's life and went to the opposite valley to command.

When Qu Yi heard that there were reinforcements in front of him, he was overjoyed and urged the troops to advance at full speed. After passing the valley, he met with the ambush and launched a counterattack against Cao's army. At present, Qu Yi led the way forward, and Zhang Liao led the rear of the camp and retreated as quickly as possible.

Yuan Jun has been running around for two nights and a day. He only took a short break on the road for a few times and was already exhausted. He had just walked to the valley and the Cao army cavalry behind him had already chased him. (To be continued, please search for astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
