Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

"Old Cao, do you think I can still lie to you?" Chen Yang said confidently.

Hearing these words, Cao Cao also had to seriously consider this matter.

"How do you plan to bet?" Cao Cao said.

"I plan to make a batch of bows and crossbows recently, but ordinary blacksmiths in Xudu City dare not make such things, and I need a lot of iron ore, so I will bet on this batch of blacksmiths and iron ore with you, Lao Cao." stone."

Chen Yang continued: "If I win, you will allocate part of the blacksmiths and iron mines in the army to me. If I lose, Lao Cao, what do you say, then what to do."

Cao Cao said, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, are you interested in taking a gamble?"

"Okay, since you are so confident, I will bet with you. My request is not too much. If you lose, you have to promise to marry Ning'er, okay?"

"make a deal!"

Chen Yang nodded and said.

Far from being too much, no matter whether he wins or loses, Chen Yang can take advantage of it.

"Shopkeeper Chen, I'm just waiting for you to marry Ning'er, hahaha..."

Cao Cao seemed to see victory in sight, and smiled happily.

Chen Yang still said confidently: "Old Cao, maybe you will lose. Ten days later, I will bring 3000 people from the salt mine factory to compete with Lao Cao's 1 people on the school field. That's it. "

"it is good!"

Cao Cao nodded in agreement, no matter whether he wins or loses, he is as harmless as Chen Yang.

If Chen Yang wins, a battle formation that can fight against 3000 people with 1 people will definitely be won. Let alone those blacksmiths and ores, Cao Cao with [-] horses will be worth it.

If Chen Yang's battle formation is not so strong, that's even better, and the marriage between the two parties will come naturally.

"Shopkeeper Chen, if you want bows and crossbows, I can give you a batch of new ones directly, why make them yourself?" Cao Cao asked another question in his mind.

"Because my bow and crossbow are very different, you will know when I build it, and you may ask me to buy it at that time." Chen Yang said with a smile.

After the two sides agreed on the competition, Cao Cao said goodbye to Chen Yang and went back to Xudu.

When Cao Cao returned to Cao Mansion, he summoned everyone in the meeting hall.

"Do you think there is a very powerful battle formation that can use 3000 infantry to resist 1 infantry?" Cao Cao roughly told them about the bet with Chen Yang.

However, as soon as his words fell, Xun Yu who was beside him immediately shook his head and said, "Is shopkeeper Chen joking with the prime minister? Three thousand to ten thousand, how is that possible!"

"Yeah, who is that shopkeeper Chen? This person must have deceived the prime minister. 3000 people want to defeat 1 people, unless they use cavalry!" Next to Cao Cao, there is another general, Cao Ren, who doesn't believe it either. said.

Although the generals who followed Cao Cao had never met Chen Yang, they basically knew of Chen Yang's existence, and they also knew that Chen Yang had recently advised Cao Cao.

"I have been through the battlefield for a long time and have fought many battles. How can I not know that the battle formation is only an auxiliary function. If you want to win a battle, besides the battle formation, there are many limiting factors. Even if the battle formation can improve the combat effectiveness, there is a limit. "Xiahou Dun analyzed, "Under the premise of such a huge disparity in numbers, 1 people can easily defeat 3000 people. Of course, if it is [-] cavalry, it will be another story."

After meeting Chen Yang last time, Xiahoudun thought that Chen Yang was also a capable person, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. I really don't know why the prime minister is interested in him, and because of Chen Yang, he retired from their Xiahou family marriage contract.

"This person must be lying to the prime minister. How strong can a mere 3000-man battle formation be?" Cao Hong also said, "If you let me fight him, give me 1000 infantry soldiers, and they can break through that shopkeeper's battle formation."

Hearing that they all expressed their opinions, most of which were disdain for Chen Yang, Cao Cao hesitated in his heart, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Guo Jia asked, "Prime Minister, did Shopkeeper Chen say he was a cavalry soldier?"

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "That's an infantry formation. Besides, shopkeeper Chen doesn't even have a horse. Where did the cavalry come from?"

Xiahou Dun said again: "Since it's not cavalry, as Zilian said, give me 1000 men, and I don't need any battle formations, and I can beat Chen Yang through."

Zilian is Cao Hong's character.

Guo Jia said: "I think that if shopkeeper Chen dares to say this, he must have his basis and confidence, but the difference in numbers is too big. I can't imagine how shopkeeper Chen will let 3000 people win."

Thinking of Chen Yang's fairy-like methods, Guo Jia should have believed in him, but this time he didn't know whether he should believe it or not.

What the final result will be, we have to wait until the fight to know.

"Since that's the case, after ten days, I will leave it to you to take charge of the competition between the leader and shopkeeper Chen. What do you think?" Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Dun and said.

"The last general takes orders, Prime Minister, please rest assured, I will definitely kill Chen Yang's men and flee!" Xiahou Dun bowed and said loudly.

Although the conflict was resolved, Xiahou Dun still felt a little resentful towards Chen Yang, and this time gave him a chance to take revenge.

-

Over there in the salt mines.

Chen Yang found Ye Shun, and then directly asked all the soldiers to gather and run ten laps around the entire salt mine.

The circle around the salt mine is about five kilometers. Most of the ancient soldiers marched and fought on foot, so ten circles were nothing to them.

However, Chen Yang said again: "Ye Shun, you go and divide everyone into 100 teams, and each team will form a small group of [-] people. After ten laps, the three teams with the slowest overall speed , I have no food tonight!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers let out an exclamation at the same time.

Chen Yang said again: "Why are you surprised? When the lord speaks on the stage, you must not make noise. Also, marching and fighting is not something that can be won by individual heroism, nor can you win with your personal strength. What is important is teamwork." , each of your small teams has honed their ability to cooperate, and everyone in the team shares weal and woe, you know?"

Listening to Chen Yang's words, all the soldiers stopped talking and nodded silently.

"Ye Shun, count the number of laps clearly for me. When running, only allow more and not less, and start dividing into teams!"

As soon as Chen Yang's voice fell, Ye Shun immediately went to rearrange them, and soon thirty small teams were formed.

"Start, run!" Chen Yang shouted again giving orders.

All the soldiers didn't want to have nothing to eat, so they rushed out of the camp as soon as they heard the order, and the scene was chaotic.

"Stop, what are you doing? Are you fleeing? Come back to me!" Chen Yang put on the appearance of a stern instructor.

Seeing this, Ye Shun had no choice but to call all the soldiers back and regroup.

Chen Yang said again: "Listen to me, all of you. Now it's training, not running away. When you run, tidy up and keep all your weapons in your hands."

"It's time to start running. Every team must be neat and uncluttered. As long as I find out that one person is messed up, your team won't be able to eat tonight. I will only give you one chance to start over!"

Those soldiers were afraid of Chen Yang's training methods and his severity, but they had to obey.

Soon, I started running for the second time, and finally it was much better than before.

Although there were a few people who wandered off, Chen Yang temporarily let them go as if he couldn't see them.

Under the leadership of Ye Shun, three thousand soldiers began their first training under Chen Yang.
