"Greetings, Prime Minister!"
The university students stood up and bowed upon seeing Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang, dressed in a simple robe and wearing a silk cap, held a feather fan in his hand. He gazed gently at the students before him and nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
"I heard from General Wei that you performed excellently on the training grounds today and successfully navigated the trap area?" Zhuge Liang's voice was warm and gentle, yet carried an imposing presence.
"Replying to the Prime Minister, we merely got lucky," Shen Yi humbly replied.
"Lucky?" Zhuge Liang smiled slightly. "The traps set by General Wei are such that even seasoned veterans may not escape unscathed. Your ability to pass through so smoothly cannot simply be attributed to luck."
"You flatter us, Prime Minister," Shen Yi said with calm confidence. "We only applied some modern knowledge and techniques."
"Oh? Modern knowledge and techniques?" A glimmer of interest flashed in Zhuge Liang's eyes. "Please, tell me more."
Shen Yi glanced at Zhuge Liang and then at the fellow students beside him. After a moment of contemplation, he slowly began, "Prime Minister, in fact, our success in navigating the trap area was not due to brute force or luck, but rather the result of teamwork, logical reasoning, and analysis of the types of traps."
Zhuge Liang slightly nodded, signaling Shen Yi to continue. Behind him, Wei Yan looked curious, clearly very interested in this "modern knowledge."
"First of all, our team comes from different professional backgrounds, each with our own knowledge and skills." Shen Yi pointed to a slender boy wearing glasses beside him. "For example, this student is from the Architecture Department. He has a deep understanding of architectural structures and mechanical principles, allowing him to quickly identify the types of traps and their triggering mechanisms."
The Architecture Department student shyly adjusted his glasses and smiled bashfully.
"Secondly, we emphasize logical reasoning and information analysis." Shen Yi pointed to another girl. "This student is from the Computer Science Department. She excels at data analysis and logical reasoning, enabling her to deduce the locations and patterns of traps based on environmental clues and known information."
The girl nodded slightly, a confident smile on her face.
"Finally, we have also studied some knowledge about ancient traps in advance, such as..." Shen Yi paused deliberately for effect, "animal traps, tripwires, rockfall traps, etc. This knowledge helps us anticipate the types of traps and how to deal with them."
After listening to Shen Yi's explanation, Zhuge Liang pondered for a moment before slowly speaking. "The knowledge and skills you mentioned do indeed have their unique merits. It seems you are not ordinary people."
"You flatter us, Chancellor," Shen Yi humbly replied. "We have merely grasped some modern knowledge and methods; compared to your strategic prowess, it is truly insignificant."
Zhuge Liang smiled but did not respond further. Instead, he turned his gaze to the other students and asked, "What about the rest of you? Is there anything you would like to say?"
The students exchanged glances but dared not speak. After all, standing before them was the greatest politician and military strategist of the Three Kingdoms period—Zhuge Liang!
"What’s wrong? Are you all too afraid to speak in front of an old man?" Zhuge Liang's tone was gentle, yet he exuded an invisible pressure.
"Chancellor..." a bold boy stepped forward, gathering his courage to say, "We... we are just worried that we may not have the ability to fulfill the tasks you assign us."
"Yes, Chancellor," another girl echoed, "we know nothing about ancient warfare, let alone fighting on the battlefield."
Zhuge Liang, upon hearing this, did not get angry; instead, he burst into laughter.
"You are still too young," Zhuge Liang said with a smile, shaking his head. "War is not just a simple clash of swords; it is also a contest of wisdom and strategy. Although you lack practical experience, you possess knowledge and ways of thinking that surpass your time, and that is your greatest advantage."
Zhuge Liang paused, his gaze sweeping over each university student as his tone grew serious. "Of course, I will not deny the brutality of war. Remember, on the battlefield, even the slightest oversight can cost you your life."
Upon hearing this, the students' expressions turned grave.
"Rest assured, Chancellor, we will study diligently and will not let you down!" Shen Yi promised on behalf of all the students.
"Good! I like your enthusiasm!" Zhuge Liang nodded in satisfaction. "Starting tomorrow, I will personally train you in military tactics and strategies to prepare for the upcoming Northern Expedition!"
The students were instantly thrilled to hear that Zhuge Liang would personally train them. They knew this would be a once-in-a-lifetime learning opportunity and the beginning of their chance to change history and create miracles.
"Thank you, Chancellor!" the students said in unison, their voices loud and filled with hope and confidence.
