The autumn has arrived, and the fields after harvesting crops are left empty.

Half of the leaves of the tree have fallen. With just a little breeze, there are always some leaves that are left off, like red and purple birds, flying in the sky.

The autumn tiger has begun to retreat and the sun has become gentle.

In the Qinling Mountains, there are heavy rains in summer and heavy rain in autumn.

Especially in autumn, if you walk between the Qinling Mountains, it is normal to encounter rain for more than ten days in a row.

The gloomy and humid weather, mud and fog enveloped the earth with an unnatural green and boring, and the products of constant rain enveloped the fields and ridges like a thin net.

This kind of weather caused great inconvenience to the Han army in Wuzhangyuan.

After several months of confrontation, Zhuge Liang passed the Wugong River several times, hoping to gain a foothold on the East Coast.

But when it rains, the Wugong water flowing from the Qinling Mountains into the Wei River will always soar.

Sima Yi took the opportunity to dispatch infantry and cavalry, striving to drive the Han army back to the west coast.

The two sides went back and forth for several months.

Not to mention being the leader of the two armies, even Zhuge Liang couldn't help but frown:

After so long, Sima Yi has been holding on. Could it be that Feng Yong's detour to Bingzhou has failed?

It seems that autumn has begun, and in two months, winter is about to begin.

By then, the army led by Feng Yong will be thousands of miles away from Liangzhou, and it will be a desert with frequent white disasters. It will be difficult to keep up with the supply, but I am afraid the consequences will be unpredictable.

Looking at the Wei army camp on the other side from Wuzhangyuan, Zhuge Liang finally couldn't help but watch:

"Come on, prepare your pen and ink."

After the writing and ink was ready, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty wrote a letter of war and sent someone to the other side, saying that he wanted to make an appointment with Sima Yi to decide the outcome.

After the Prime Minister's letter was sent to the Wei army camp, Sima Yi read it and just smiled it, and then said to the Han envoy:

"Although I have never met Kong Ming in person, I have been in contact with letters for a long time. When I was in Luoyang, I talked to Huang Gongheng about Shu, and he often sat up and sighed."

"I never thought that I would fight with it now."

Speaking of this, he felt a little emotional on his face, "Although I am different from Kong Ming, I admire Kong Ming's ambition deeply. I wonder if his health is still safe?"

Seeing the other party ask about the prime minister, the Han envoy quickly replied:

"If you have to worry about Duke Ming, the Prime Minister is in good health."

"Oh, can you still have a meal?"

"The army is tired and cannot eat and eat, so the appetite is worse than before."

"That's it." Sima Yi nodded, "I have heard that all things in Shu are related to Kong Ming. In addition, he is very busy with military affairs, so he is afraid he will not have time to spare."

The Han envoy nodded:

"Ming Gong is sincere to be the Prime Minister. These days, the Prime Minister often eats less and sleeps late, so he is really not idle."

Sima Yi smiled:

"After you go back, you can advise Kong Ming for me to take care of him."

"No."

"Sima Yi asked me to take care of myself?" After hearing the messenger's return, Zhuge Liang was stunned and frowned, "What did he say at that time? Tell me carefully."

He not only asked the envoy to tell in detail how Sima Yi asked and answered questions, but even asked Sima Yi's expression and actions at that time to interrogate.

After letting the envoy go out, Zhuge Liang sat alone in the tent and thought to himself:

"Sima Yi was telling me to take care of my health, but secretly protested to me, saying that he knew my physical condition and was sure that I could not continue to lead the army and stay here for too long..."

Before the thought could be completed, the prime minister suddenly clenched his fist and put it to his mouth and began to cough.

At this time, a figure outside the tent was shaking:

"Prime Minister, Wei Yan asked for a meeting."

Zhuge Liang put down his fist and barely stopped coughing:

“Come in.”

The curtain was lifted, and Wei Yan hurried into the tent. Before the person could stand still, he asked directly:

"Prime Minister, what's wrong? Did Sima Yi agree to decide the outcome with us?"

 Along with Wei Yan entering the tent, there was also Qiu Feng.

Feeling a little chill, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but cough twice, then glanced at Wei Yan and said calmly:

"Sima Yi has been in the east coast for a long time. If he is willing to agree, why should he wait until today?"

Wei Yan was very disappointed when he heard this, and then he felt unwilling to accept it and couldn't help saying:

"Prime Minister, in the past few months, the army has failed to cross the river several times. Sima Yi has already discovered the details of our army. Now that the fighter has been lost, whether to fight or not is with the enemy, not with me."

"If the Prime Minister could listen to the last general's words, after arriving at Wuzhangyuan, it would be better to prepare to cross the water early than to wait for Feng Yong's news, so he would have been under Chang'an City now!"

"Even if you fail to cross the river later, you can still raise your troops to the west and wait for an opportunity to capture Chen Cang. This is a good idea. Why not be in a dilemma?"

Wei Yan is now the number one general in the prime minister's army and also serves as a military advisor. He advised the prime minister that it was within his responsibilities.

In this situation, it would be abnormal if Wei Yan's personality does not complain a few times.

If another superior had changed, he would have long since sent a person to the cold palace after hearing Wei Yan's words.

However, Zhuge Liang knew Wei Yan's character and cherished his courage and strategy, so he was too lazy to bother with him.

Just wrote another letter and then ordered:

"Come, get me some women's clothes."

"Prime Minister, there is no woman in the army, how can women get dressed?"

"If there is no woman in the army, I will use the food to exchange for a few pieces of clothing in the people."

"No."

Wei Yan couldn't help asking when he heard the Prime Minister's strange words:

"What does the Prime Minister want women to do with their clothes?"

"Sima Yi has more soldiers than me and has a good geographical advantage. Now he dares not fight. He is not even as good as that woman."

"Since he wants to be a woman, I will give her a few sets of women's clothes to see if he can sit still."

Wei Yan smiled:

"What's the difference between the Prime Minister's move and the child's anger? If he really wants to be determined not to go out of the battle, he will think of an excuse to refuse."

Wei Yan's chatter made Zhuge Liang feel a little impatient.

The prime minister said, "You have to try it before you know."

Wei Yan saw that the Prime Minister was still unwilling to listen to what he said, so he had to come out in a bad mood.

Although Zhuge Liang had already planned with Feng Yong when he led his troops to Hanzhong, with Zhuge Liang's prudence, he would not place all hope on Feng Yong.

As a preparation for Feng Yong's failure, Zhuge Liang asked the auxiliary soldiers and civilians to live in the Wuzhangyuan and the Wei River to carry out military farming, as a long-term investment to prevent insufficient military rations.

So although there are indeed some people near Wuzhangyuan, there are definitely not many wealthy families, and they are basically all Cangtou Guizhou.

The women's clothes found by the soldiers were all worn by some rural women.

The Prime Minister had already written a letter and directly sent it to the other side of the letter and the woman's clothes together.

When Sima Yi learned that Zhuge Liang sent someone to deliver the letter again, he smiled and said to his side:

"I see that Zhuge Liang is really anxious and urges me to go to war. As the saying goes, what the enemy wants and what I stop, the more anxious he is, the more I need to be steady."

After saying that, he ordered, "Come on, submit the letter Zhuge Liang sent."

The personal guards were allowed, so they allowed the Han envoy to enter the commander's tent.

"I've met Ming Gong."

Sima Yi smiled and said with a whisper:

"Let me see, what will Kong Ming say again this time..."

The Han envoy held a box and replied: "Return to the Ming Duke, the Prime Minister gave Ming Duke a gift in addition to his letter."

"Oh, Kong Ming is intent." Sima Yi laughed, "Come on."

The left and right took the box from the Han envoy and put it on Sima Yi's commander's desk.

Sima Yi twisted his nose buckle and opened the box. When he saw that there were neatly folded clothes inside, he couldn't help but say "huh" and thought to himself that this was a strange thing. Why did Kong Ming bring this to me?

Curiously, he reached into the box, took out the clothes, subconsciously shook it open, and then a woman's skirt suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

What's more striking is that as the Grand Sima shook his clothes, a strapless breast floated slowly on his feet...

It turned out that in order to get a complete set of women's clothes, the Han soldiers even brought back the strapless clothes for the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister sent the clothes intact.

quiet!
