Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Under the moonlight, there was a simple farm house. Under the moonlight, a woman was sitting under a tree with a baby in her arms. In front of her stood a young man who had just reached the age of tying his hair.

The boy looked at the baby with a smile on his face, and the baby looked at the boy with innocent eyes. The mother of the baby suddenly asked, "Mr. Kong Ming, please name the dog!"

This young man was surnamed Zhuge and named Kongming. His parents died when he was young and he was brought up by his uncle. But his uncle also passed away not long ago. A few years ago because of the war, his elder brother Zhuge Ziyu also left him, and he is still missing.

Zhuge Kongming caressed the baby's little face, with an innocent smile on his face, "Mrs. Jiang, let's call this baby Wei!"

"Wei, Jiang Wei! What a name!" Mrs. Jiang said happily, "When he is older, let him study with you!"

Zhuge Kongming nodded with a smile, and agreed to Mrs. Jiang's request.

Jiang Wei is a posthumous child. His father died in battle not long ago, and his mother’s life was almost hopeless. Jiang Wei’s birth brought hope to this desperate mother. She took the child and left her hometown, and met the young but knowledgeable Zhuge Kongming .

Zhuge Kongming liked reading since he was a child, especially he was very proficient in ancient books and the art of war, and even recited them backwards.Although life was uncertain after that, Kong Ming still taught young Jiang Wei how to read, play the piano, and etiquette. Although Jiang Wei was young, he already understood the truth of "being a teacher for one day and being a father for life".

But in the past few years, the enemy has frequently invaded, and the people have fled.Because of years of wandering in the war, seeing the people displaced and suffering, Zhuge Kongming remembered that his elder brother Zhuge Ziyu also disappeared due to the war three years ago. At this time, Kongming suddenly planned to join the army, but he was a scholar. He never wields swords and guns, but he has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and it is okay to make suggestions, as long as he can contribute to the country, so he decided to leave Jiang Wei's mother and son temporarily and join the emperor's uncle Liu Xuande as a counselor.

"Sir, don't go!" Five-year-old Jiang Wei grabbed Kong Ming's clothes and was already sobbing.

"Wei'er!" Kong Ming knelt down, gently wiped away the child's tears, and comforted him, "We will see you again when the world is stable in the future!"

Kong Ming said and took out a kit, "I will use this thing as a proof when I see you again. When I am away, listen to my mother and study hard!"

Little Jiang Wei nodded sensibly, "Sir, Wei waits for your return, but also helps Mr. to calm down the world as soon as possible!"

Afterwards, Kong Ming left and went to join Liu Xuande's tent, but because he was too young, he became an ordinary counselor. Although his status was not high, Kong Ming did not change his mind. In the future, he will help the emperor to calm down the world.

Hard work pays off, and in the afternoon of the following year, Zhang Yide, the younger brother of the emperor Liu Xuande, led 3000 people to defend the city, but the enemy was about to attack the city suddenly. "What should we do? We can't sit still!"

When everyone had nothing to do and everyone was panicked, Zhuge Kongming stood up calmly and said, "I have a plan to retreat from the enemy!"

Everyone looked at this too young scholar, it was unbelievable, "You know, this is a big deal, not a joke!"

Zhuge Kongming said calmly again: "Kongming has a strategy to retreat from the enemy, and he is willing to guarantee it with his life. I am willing to issue a military order!"

"This—" Everyone was still in disbelief, because they wouldn't believe that a scholar who was too young could have a strategy to defeat the enemy.

Zhang Yide thought for a while, but he had no other choice, so he said to everyone: "At this point, we can only do this. Rather than just sit and wait for death, it is better to listen to Kong Ming's opinion. I will guarantee this matter, and I am willing to issue a military order!"

"General Zhang, absolutely not!" Although the soldiers stopped him, Zhang Yide still issued a military order after Kong Ming issued a military order, and allowed him to use Zhuge Kongming's skills to defeat the enemy.

The enemy army came to the city, but found that there was no soldier on the city, only a Confucian scholar in a weak crown, wearing a moon-white coat, sitting calmly on the city, holding a guqin in his arms.

The enemy generals didn't know who the Confucian scholars in the city were, but they didn't feel like ordinary people. They even felt that a scholar at a young age could be so fearless about life and death. This is definitely not ordinary. There must be something strange, maybe there must be ambushes in the city Finally, the enemy still did not dare to enter the city, but retreated.

When night fell, Zhang Yide's brother-in-law, Liu Xuande, the emperor's uncle of the Han Dynasty, brought troops to support him. On the way, he learned that the enemy had retreated, so he asked all the soldiers, "Who is the one who retreated?"

Zhang Yide replied: "It's a counselor named Zhuge Kongming! Originally, the generals didn't listen to his opinion when they saw that he was young. I issued a military order to guarantee it!"

Liu Xuande sighed and said, "Yide, you know it's dangerous to do so."

Zhang Yide replied: "Brother, of course I know about it, but there is no other way to do it. Instead of sitting and waiting for death, it is better to listen to Zhuge Kongming's plan!"

Liu Xuande praised after hearing this: "Yide, you are right to do this, you are my good brother!" He then ordered, "Hurry up and bring Zhuge Kongming to see me!"

Yide brought Zhuge Kongming to his brother-in-law. Zhuge Kongming was still wearing the moon-white brocade robe and holding the qin in his arms. Liu Xuande found that although this young scholar was still immature, he was already extraordinary, not like ordinary people. .
