Great Military Division

Chapter 344 The Yuanyang Formation Was Played To A New Height By Zhou Yu?
Tongzilang Court.

This is a place to provide accommodation for the students of the Juvenile Talent Class.

After the daily lectures, they rest, eat and live here. All the expenses are borne by the imperial court, and they are well-known public students.

After dinner, Zhuge Liang packed up his tableware, washed his hands, and ran out in a hurry, catching up with the boy in front who was half a head shorter than himself.

"Lu Yi!"

Zhuge Liang chased after him and bowed his hands to salute the other party.

"Zhuge Erlang?"

Lu Yi frowned, turned around, and returned the salute: "You're looking for me, but you have something to do?"

Zhuge Liang nodded with a smile on his face: "I'm very interested in Lu's speech. There should indeed be something that can burn and something that can't burn in this calm wind."

"I would like to invite student Lu to continue to explore this phenomenon with Liang, for example, how many flammable static winds are there, and what are their characteristics, etc. I wonder if student Lu is willing?"

Lu Yi nodded affirmatively, smiling all over his face: "To be honest, I also intend to continue my research. It would be great if I could be with Zhuge Erlang."

"As it is"

Zhuge Liang was very excited, and immediately invited: "Let's go to Zangshuge to search for some historical materials while it's still early, maybe we can find some clues from it."

"Before nightfall, let's share our historical materials with each other, discuss with each other, try to gain something, and then formulate experimental strategies together, how about it?"

Lu Yi was overjoyed: "I'm determined to do what I want, but I dare not invite you."

Zhuge Liang was also delighted: "Let's go, Classmate Lu!"

"Zhuge Erlang, don't call me classmate Lu from now on."

"What's that called?"

"Ah Yi, that's what my family calls me."

"Okay! Then you can call me Ah Liang from now on."

"OK."

"."

Immediately, the two left Tongzilang Garden and went straight to Zangshu Pavilion.

There are more than ten thousand volumes of books here, and they are open to Tong Zilang, Lu Zhi and others for free.

When Zhuge Liang and Lu Yi came to Zangshu Pavilion, there were already two figures in the direction of the reading area, reading quietly.

"It's Brother Sima Yi."

Zhuge Liang lowered his voice and looked at a certain figure in the reading area.

He was very impressed with this man.

After the exam was over, it was this person who had a lot of doubts about the questions, but in the end, it was this person who admired His Majesty the Emperor the most.

Zhuge Liang really didn't expect that the Sima Yi brothers came earlier than them, and it seemed that they had been reading for a long time, after all, there were a lot of books beside them.

"kindness."

Lu Yi nodded, his eyes filled with admiration: "Ah Liang, I swear that before I graduate, I will at least read every book in Zangshu Pavilion once."

Zhuge Liang patted his chest: "Let's go together."

Lu Yi smiled lightly: "Okay, let's go."

Immediately.

The two went straight to the interior of the library, and began to search for the books they wanted. They each moved a stack to the reading area, found a place with sufficient light, and began to read carefully.

""The Way of Everything"?"

Zhuge Liang frowned when he found this book from the bookshelf.

He flipped through two pages casually, and after reading for a short while, he was deeply attracted by the content.

Everything in the world has its way, such as flowers, birds, fish and insects, birds and animals, rivers and lakes, sun, moon and stars.

Why do people suffer from birth, old age, sickness and death?
Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west?
Why do stars flicker?
Why does fire destroy everything?
"interesting."

Zhuge Liang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he turned to the last page.

Surprisingly found.

Two familiar words appeared on it: "This book is actually written by His Majesty? No wonder it is so fascinating. Maybe there is the answer I want in it."

Zhuge Liang put "The Way of Everything" on the top floor, carrying a stack of books, came to the reading area, finished the ink, spread out the notebook issued by the court, and started the crazy "reading + note-taking" mode.

*****
a few days later.

Liu Bian finished handling relevant government affairs.

After Sima Hui came to submit the latest list of candidates for the examination, he couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty has opened the Library Pavilion and borrowed thousands of volumes of books at will, which is really a wise move!"

"Oh?"

Liu Bian put down the test list, couldn't help but looked up curiously at Sima Hui: "What's the meaning of Morality? Could it be that the library has been taken over by these boys?"

"That's it."

Sima Hui pinched the goatee under his chin, and said with a smile on his face: "Yesterday, the Secretary Supervisor who was in charge of managing the Zangshu Pavilion found the old man. It is really impossible to drive away these children, and it is difficult to close the pavilion."

"Ha ha!"

Although this kind of behavior was wrong, it made Sima Hui very happy: "It was the old man who went to Zangshu Pavilion himself, and then reluctantly drove them all away."

"The [-] boys in the first phase are all studying in Zangshuge, art of war, classics, arithmetic, etc. They read a lot of content, and some of them are not even good at it."

"It may not be long before each of them will become a pillar of the imperial court and the hope of revitalizing the Han Dynasty. I don't know how long the veterans will live. I really hope to see them all become talents."

Liu Bian nodded and smiled lightly: "Don't worry about morality, you will live a long life. I have witnessed their efforts for the great revitalization of the Han Dynasty with my own eyes. I have great confidence in you."

"Ha ha!"

Sima Hui looked up to the sky and laughed: "I hope so."

Liu Bian smiled lightly, and immediately turned back to the topic: "This guy named Zhuge Jin should be Zhuge Liang's elder brother, right?"

Sima Hui nodded and nodded: "That's right! There is also Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Liang's uncle. They all passed the exam, but Sanlang Zhuge Jun was 56th in the exam for the young genius class and was not selected."

"kindness."

Liu Bian was quite satisfied with this.

The Zhuge family in history has always liked the way of balance.

However, in this era, they were able to submit Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang under the command of Nanyang, which is enough to prove that their confidence in the new Nanyang Dynasty is far greater than that of the old Chang'an Dynasty.

"Are there any vacancies?"

Liu Bian asked tentatively.

"Have!"

Sima Hui nodded affirmatively: "Runan Xincai, Chen Guoyangxia and other places lack county magistrates. According to the advice given by Xun Lingjun, these two people are arranged to be county magistrates in these two places."

"OK, alright!"

Liu Bian was very satisfied with this, and said in a soft voice: "The Zhuge family is all outstanding people, and they need to be trained well. Arrange them to go to the post as soon as possible, and strive to make political achievements as soon as possible and be promoted."

Sima Hui cupped his hands: "Well, since that's the case, the old minister will take his leave for the time being."

Liu Bianen said: "Go."

Immediately.

Sima Hui bowed and left the hall.

At this moment, the voice of the Military Division Alliance sounded: "Master Bian should be relieved this time, right? Let's put them in the library. Those books on physics, chemistry, arithmetic, and geometry will definitely be found by them."

"Let them comprehend it in the book, and then Master Bian guides it in the classroom. This will get twice the result with half the effort, so that these geniuses can complete the popularization of basic education at the fastest speed and give full play to their subjective initiative."

Liu Bian was overjoyed, and thought: "Well, now I am completely relieved. After one or two years of study, these Three Kingdoms think tanks can be regarded as an enhanced version of Qunying, right?"

"This can be regarded as laying a talent foundation for sweeping the world in the future. When the beginning of next year, add some new content to it. The difficulty is slightly higher, and slowly let them grow up on their own."

The Military Division Alliance smiled and said: "That's right! The two-pronged approach complements each other. In this way, there are top-notch talents, and the middle-level strength relies on the implementation of 'imperial examination + education'. Basically, there is no need to worry about talents."

"As for the population of the Great Han, now that Lord Bian has abolished oral and counting taxation, the common people in the ruling area will naturally dare to have children. It is estimated that the population will enter a stage of skyrocketing in a short time. After more than ten years, it will just catch up with the Raiders. worldwide."

this rhythm.
It was simply pinched to death by the military division alliance.

As long as they can get through the stable period of the first three years with peace of mind, the next step is to sweep the world.

When Liu Bian was full of joy.

Suddenly, a long announcement sounded outside the hall.

"Report—!"

Liu Bian looked up.

However, Zhu Tong pushed the door open and entered, bowed his body and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, today is the day of the decisive battle set by Zhou Yu and Deng Peng, do you want to watch the battle?"

"Naturally!"

When Liu Bian heard that Zhou Yu and Deng Peng were going to have a decisive battle, he was full of expectations.

Therefore, he told Zhu Tong in advance to remind himself.

Now that the day of the decisive battle has come, it is natural to go to watch the battle: "I really want to see what kind of skills Zhou Yu has, how dare he use a mandarin duck army to start a duel with Deng Peng."

"Prepare the car!"

Liu Bian stood up without hesitation.

Zhu Tong cupped his hands: "Here."

Immediately.

The two left the palace and went straight to the Yuanyang Army.

About half an hour.

Then they arrived at the station of the Mandarin Duck Army.

As soon as Liu Bian got out of the car, there were generals who came up to greet him: "The last general, Tan Xiong, welcome Your Majesty."

Liu Bian looked up and down at the strong man in front of him, and couldn't help being curious: "Oh? How do you know that I will come today?"

Tan Xiong bowed his body and cupped his hands, and replied honestly: "It's not that General Zhou knew, but General Zhou had expected it, so he asked General Mo to wait here. If the time is approaching and His Majesty has not arrived, General Mo can go back to the camp to prepare. "

"What a Zhou Lang!"

Liu Bian smiled and praised.

Immediately.

He turned to glance at Tan Xiong, and said softly, "What is your position in the army?"

Tan Xiong cupped his hands: "It's very long."

"How long?"

"kindness."

"Then how did you meet Zhou Lang?"

"The last general is the mandarin duck army who passed the exam and entered the army. When General Zhou selected the general a few days ago, he selected the last general."

"Oh?"

Liu Bian was pleasantly surprised, and tried to ask: "Then you will also participate in the duel today?"

Tan Xiong nodded: "That's right."

Liu Bian smiled and praised: "Being able to pick you proves that Zhou Lang has a good vision. What do you think of your winning rate this time?"

Tan Xiong frowned, his face a bit embarrassed: "This."

"how?"

Liu Bian looked at the other party: "You don't have confidence in Zhou Lang?"

Tan Xiong cupped his hands: "General Zhou's art of war is excellent, but the soldiers he chose are mostly new recruits with very little combat experience, while Captain Zuo's subordinates are all veterans of many battles, and their strength varies greatly."

"New recruit?"

Liu Bian was even more shocked: "The ones chosen by Zhou Lang are all recruits?"

Tan Xiong nodded: "En! Apart from the last general, there are three others who have passed the examination and entered the Yuanyang Army. They are currently the captains, and the second is the recruits recruited by the Yuanyang Army since entering Nanyang, a total of [-] people."

"interesting."

Liu Bian did not mean to underestimate Zhou Yu, but became more and more interested in it.

He breathed out, his eyes full of anticipation: "I want to see how Zhou Lang leads the recruits against the old mandarin ducks. Let's go, go to the school grounds to watch the battle."

Tan Xiong cupped his hands and cupped his fists: "Here."

now.

Yuanyang Military Academy.

The flags are flying, and the soldiers are dense.

Liu Bian came to Dianjiangtai, condescending, both sides are making final preparations.

The two of them seemed to have heard that His Majesty was coming, so they rushed over from the school grounds one after another: "My minister Zhou Yu (Deng Peng), see Your Majesty."

Liu Bian nodded and said, "Well, get up."

The two cupped their hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Deng Peng seemed a little embarrassed, and his face was slightly embarrassed: "Your Majesty, the last general"

Liu Bian interrupted with a wave of his hand, and said in a cold voice: "Since Zhou Lang agreed, I naturally support it, but this matter can only happen once, otherwise you pack up and go home!"

"A general who disobeys orders, even if he is good at fighting, I will not tolerate him, no matter what kind of big family he comes from, this is true for all. I hope you will take care of yourself."

Deng Peng bowed his body and cupped his hands: "The last general is convicted, no matter what the outcome of this decisive battle is, the last general."

Before the words finished, Liu Bian interrupted again: "Zhou Lang is a true gentleman, since he agreed, how can he go back on his word, if Zhou Lang really loses in this battle, it will prove that I am blind, and the mandarin duck army will be entrusted to you to command. "

"Ah, this"

"kindness?"

Deng Peng hurriedly cupped his hands: "The general understands, thank you Your Majesty."

Liu Bian turned to glance at Zhou Yu: "General Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhou Yu cupped his hands: "It should be so, and the general will not be able to ask for it."

"it is good!"

Seeing Zhou Yu's self-confidence, Liu Bian looked forward to it even more, and immediately waved his hand: "That's it, let's go back to prepare, and start the duel according to the previous plan. I will notarize for you and will not be biased."

Deng Peng and Zhou Yu clasped their hands together: "Here."

Soon.

The two armies entered the school field from the preparation area and started their respective formations.

Liu Bian stood up and stared, frowning slightly, thinking to himself: "Teacher, Zhou Yu's formation feels a bit unusual, it doesn't seem to be a mandarin duck formation in the traditional sense."

"That's right!"

The voice of the military division alliance followed: "The ancient military experts said that Zhou Yu's formation is, in a sense, a crane-wing formation that can be attacked and defended, but each part of the crane-wing formation is a small mandarin duck formation. formation."

"This reminds experts of the gossip formation invented by Zhuge Liang. In a sense, the gossip formation is a composite formation made of gossip. "

"Oh?"

Liu Bian's interest immediately rose, and he stared at the battlefield below: "So, Zhou Yu's formation is also a relatively simple composite formation?"

"kindness."

The military division alliance is very sure of this: "The crane wing array is like a white crane spreading its wings. The front and middle are thick, and the two wings can be stretched for defense, encirclement and other tactics."

"And Zhou Yu organically integrated the combat units of the Mandarin Duck Formation into the Crane Wing Formation, and can better display the characteristics of the Mandarin Duck Formation's ability to attack and defend. It is simply a genius!"

"Expert guesses."

The Military Alliance said softly: "Zhou Yu has not been idle during the three months of idleness. He must have studied the tactics of mandarin duck formation, so he dared to confront Deng Peng with mandarin duck formation."

"Ha ha!"

Liu Bian looked up to the sky and laughed out loud.

He finally understood why Zhou Yu dared to be so bold.

This battle was an eye-opener for Liu Bian, and he was able to see Zhou Yu's true abilities: "I hope Deng Peng doesn't lose too quickly, otherwise his experience in hundreds of battles is really like feeding dogs."

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Boom—!
In the next second, the dull drumming sounded.

But seeing, Zhou Yu waved the red and green flags, and the whole team slowly moved towards the opponent.

Liu Bian originally thought that Deng Peng would rush forward in a swarm, but he never thought that at the moment when the beating of drums ended and Zhou Yu's team moved forward, Deng Peng's soldiers and horses also began to change.

The speed suddenly increased in the middle, rushing forward, and the left and right wings turned inward. The small mandarin duck formation immediately became a three-talented formation, with the main defender on the outside and the main attacker on the inside.

"Oh, it's interesting."

After being trained by experts from the Military Division Alliance, Liu Bian's military ability has reached a certain level.

Although he was still a little uncertain about Deng Peng's specific formation, he seemed to have understood his strategic intention, which was to ensure the safety of the two wings and the rhythm of confronting Zhou Yu head-on.

Have to admit.

Deng Peng's strategy is very correct.

After all, his advantage is veterans who have experienced many battles, and he confronts these new recruits with powerful veterans.

Which one wins and which loses is naturally predictable.

"This time Zhou Lang encountered a hard stubble."

Liu Bian didn't think it was a big deal when he watched the excitement, so he couldn't help but make fun of it.

The better Deng Peng performed, the more he could test Zhou Yu's true abilities.

Liu Bian raised his eyes to look at Zhou Yu.

but see
He remained calm and did not panic at all. When he saw Deng Peng changing his formation, Zhou Yu decisively waved the red and green flags to make the change in advance.

At this moment, the voice of the Military Division Alliance sounded: "Deng Peng must have some expert advice behind him, but he is obviously not good at the details of the operation of this formation."

"Oh?"

Liu Bian was stunned: "What do you mean?"

The Alliance of Military Advisors explained: "It's too early for him to change formation. He should sell Zhou Yu a flaw first, and wait until the critical moment to change formation. This way the effect will be better, and Zhou Yu can be caught off guard."

"But Deng Peng obviously acted too hastily. Not only was the change a bit early, but Zhou Yu was given sufficient time to react, which is enough to prove that his understanding of the formation is not deep enough."

"Being able to form this kind of formation can also become a formation, but in terms of detailed operation, there is still a big gap. This can only prove that this formation is definitely not from Deng Peng, it is very likely to be Deng Zhi."

"Ah~~"

The Military Alliance sighed: "It's a pity that such a good opportunity was wasted like this, otherwise Zhou Yu would definitely not feel better, but now, Deng Peng may suffer."

Liu Bian focused his eyes on the school field.

but see
Zhou Yu quickly made adjustments, dividing the power in the center to the left and right, and grouped them into the left and right wings. The crane wing formation was not a crane wing formation, but directly transformed into a two-dragon out-of-water formation, adopting a pincer attack from left and right, and launched a strong attack on Deng Peng's two wings.

"Zhou Yu is really amazing!"

Even Liu Bian himself couldn't help but deny it.

His reaction was really too fast, and he had reached the level of proficiency in practicing the formation: "Teacher, look, the Mandarin Duck Army on the left and right wings are already drawing bows and arrows."

"Depend on!"

Liu Bian watched the wave of arrows rain, hitting the junction between Deng Peng's left and right wings and the middle, instead of directly attacking the left and right wings:
"This judgment."

Liu Bian was astonished, and praised secretly: "It's simply too powerful."

Deng Peng's left and right wings were in a defensive formation. Even if a wave of arrows rained down, it still wouldn't do much damage, and would instead waste this wave of attack.

And Zhou Yu directly hit the junction of the left and right wings and the central force, firstly, the damage can be maximized, and secondly, it can suppress Deng Peng's transformation, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

The most important thing is that the timing of Zhou Yu's shot is very good. The change and attack go hand in hand and complement each other without giving Deng Peng any time to react.

It is clear!
In terms of formation, Zhou Yu was simply crushing Deng Peng!
The two are not on the same level at all!
Even though Deng Peng had already realized that something was wrong, he wanted to connect the defensive formations on both wings end to end to form a small circular formation to defend against the enemy, but in this way, he was already in a passive state.

After all, apart from being good at defending, the round formation is simply weak in terms of offensive ability. Zhou Yu only needs to slowly consume the opponent to break through its defense bit by bit and swallow it up.

However.
Liu Bian still thought of the war a little more simply.

When Deng Peng ordered the change of formation, his original offensive position was severely reduced, and Zhou Yu seemed to be gathering elite soldiers and horses here.

This is equivalent to driving a nail into the circle. Zhou Yu only needs to slowly deploy troops to support him, gradually deepening his strength, and he can break through Deng Peng's circle completely!
This Nima!
Really don't give it a chance.

Liu Bian heaved a sigh of relief, and thought to himself: "I originally thought that Zhou Yu was a handsome and handsome gentleman, but I didn't expect this kid to be a ruthless master when he fights."

"That's right!"

The Alliance of Military Advisors is extremely affirmative of this: "Deng Peng has completely failed. In less than a quarter of an hour, the defeat has already been established. Zhou Yu stepped on Deng Peng's intention to be the leader of the Mandarin Duck Army, and he really succeeded. Deng Peng has no way to fight back. force."

"Under the research of Zhou Yu and Deng Zhi, this mandarin duck formation has really been played with new tricks by them, but unfortunately, such a confrontation is relatively rare on the battlefield, and the practicality is not too strong, otherwise Zhou Yu can make a big man version The mandarin ducks are forming."

indeed so.

Today's battlefield is not as good as during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period. The two sides went to war and taught each other in the wilderness, thus establishing the victory.

There are less and less cases of using formations to fight against formations. In the future, I am afraid that it will be reduced to an ornamental nature instead of fighting on the battlefield. This is the choice of the times.

Jingle Bell-!
Not long after, there was a golden sound in the school grounds.

The two chief generals Qi Qi rushed to Liu Bian, clasped their hands together and said, "Your Majesty."

Liu Bian turned his head and glanced at Deng Peng: "Captain Deng, are you convinced?"

Deng Peng cupped his hands and fists towards Zhou Yu: "I will be convinced in the end."

Liu Bian smiled lightly: "If I guessed right, Deng Zhi taught you your formation, right?"

"This"

Deng Peng was surprised, but finally nodded: "Your Majesty knows that, it is indeed so."

Liu Bian stared at Deng Peng with great interest: "Tell Deng Zhi that it's not because you are strong enough to be admitted to the young genius class, but because some people are just over the age."

　Thank you [Shen Daxian] for the reward of 1500 coins!
