Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 360 Children's Growth
Deng Ai didn't speak, just pointed to the middle position with his finger.

"Haha, good boy, with ambition and future." Zhou Cang laughed heartily.

Xu Gai hurriedly ran over and pulled Deng Ai and said, "Don't talk nonsense, that's the position of the lord, you can sit next to me."

Zhang Xiong also whispered: "Ai Ai, you are young and ignorant, let me tell you: Zhou Xin will sit there in the future. Don't point like this in the future. You are fine now, and you will die when you grow up. " Zhang Jaw's experience has had a great impact on Zhang Xiong, and he has the most insight into fame and fortune, but also the least.

Deng Ai pouted and was dragged away by Zhang Xiong.Watching Zhang Xiong walk away, Zhou Cang felt a little guilty in his heart. Why did Zhuobao put a Luoyang shovel on it back then.This is also good, Zhang Xiong is far away from the officialdom, so he will be less concerned about right and wrong.Uh, in two or three months, Zhou Xin will be one year old, I don't know what he will catch.

Sighing in his heart, Zhou Cang smiled and asked Xu Gai, "Then tell me, what do you want to do when you grow up?"

Xu Gai said solemnly: "I also want to charge into battle like my father, galloping on the battlefield."

In the future, he will be another fierce player. "Okay." Zhou Cang nodded and asked Pei Feng again. "how about you?"

Pei Feng smiled and said: "Back to Uncle, my father said that he wanted to be a school lieutenant back then, but he didn't expect to become a general. He always took out the knife hidden at home and said that he lived up to the expectations of his ancestors. Me , I just want to be a general who sits on one side."

The children laughed in unison: "Don't just be a captain."

Pei Feng blushed and argued, "Maybe he's bigger than the general."

Zhou Cang smiled and said: "Yes, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will surely get what you want in the future. Captains also have big and small, just like Captain Sili, generals can't keep up with him." Regarding the military and political bureaucracy of the Three Kingdoms period , Zhou Cang still didn't fully understand.One of the important reasons is that Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao have made relatively large adjustments in power respectively, and the general framework has not changed, so Zhou Cang only remembers a general framework.Oh, how good it is to call the army commander and commander.

"Gan Xiang, what about you?" Zhou Cang asked one by one.

Gan Xiang said: "My father said that my lord once said that there are vast lands overseas. I heard that General Gan Ning is invincible on the water. When I grow up, I want to lead the Armada like General Gan Ning. I want to see the sea What will be the end of it?"

"Okay, have ambition! I can tell you right now, the ocean is bigger than the land"

Dianman curled his lips and said: "I don't want to go into the water. There is nothing good in the sea. I can't see anything after floating for ten days and a half. There is no meat to eat." Dianman is the same as Dianwei, a landlubber.

"Xiao Man, when the Hall of Martyrs is built, you have to be filial to your father, you have to be filial to your mother, and practice hard."

"I know, Uncle Qu said that he will teach me the halberd technique from now on. It's not that I'm talking big, now they, Pei Feng and others together can't beat me."

Alas, this means that like father, like son.

Looking at the little ones, Zhou Cang felt happy from the bottom of his heart. They are all good seedlings and have successors. In another ten years, these children will all grow up and become the pillars of Xuzhou or Liaodong.It's just that he seems to be a little bit more military than literary, and Zhou Cang is a little bit regretful that his own subordinates are not like this. In turbulent times, generals are needed, but governance requires capable ministers. It seems that in the future, we need to find more talents in this area.Zhou Cang is full of expectations for the upcoming big exam.

"If you have an ambition, you must study hard and practice hard to achieve it. General Qu'a is good at using halberds and whips, General Huang Zhong is good at using knives and arrows, and General Xu Huang is good at using axes. You should ask them for advice in their spare time. Gan Xiang, you can learn water skills and boat maneuvering from Sun Da." Zhou Cang pointed to his head again, "Remember, manual skill is secondary, and thinking is the main thing. Alright, you all go."

"Decree!" The little guys stood up and shouted together after receiving the first military order from Zhou Cang, and then walked out of the White Tiger Hall in a line.

Watching them leave, Zhou Cang felt a little anxious, why is Zhou Xin so young, son, let's grow up quickly.

"My lord, Zhou Chong asks to see you." Sun Da reported.

"Call him in."

"I've met the Patriarch." Zhou Chong said with a bow.

"Why did you go and come back?" Zhou Cang asked in his mouth, but he guessed Zhou Chong's purpose in his heart.

"Patriarch, Tian Guang's ulterior motives almost caused a catastrophe. I think Xuzhou and Liaodong should be investigated again."

Zhou Cang was conflicted and tired of investigating his subordinates, but he had to do it. "Go ahead and do it. The focus is on the newly promoted officials. Although the big exam has inspected the people once, but the environment has changed, we need to do some more investigations on these people to prevent some people from changing their minds."

"Yes."

Zhou Chong was about to resign after finishing speaking, but was stopped by Zhou Cang. "What's the matter with Jingzhou and Xu?"

"That's not true. Cao Cao is busy resuming post-war production, Liu Biao is content with the status quo, and Liu Bei is secretly accumulating strength. On the surface, everything is calm."

"Although I form an alliance with Sun Quan, Jiangdong must be guarded against. Then you send people to establish an intelligence point in Jiangdong to inquire about Jiangdong's information. In addition, you need to inquire more about talented people from all over the country and invite them to Xuzhou. Especially because of avoiding the war Northerners who move to Jiangdong and Jingzhou should pay more attention."

"Your subordinates understand, please rest assured, Patriarch." Zhou Chong said after a moment of hesitation: "There is another happy news for Patriarch. Zhou Xi's wife and I are pregnant at the same time, and it has been three months now."

"This is a good thing." Zhou Cang recalled the past, "You have been with me for nearly 20 years. At that time, you were all young boys, and now you are going to be fathers."

"This is all supported by the head of the family. Otherwise, even if we didn't die in the war, we don't know where we would have ended up. We agreed that if we have a boy, we will be brothers, and if we have a daughter, we will be sisters. If we have a boy and a girl, we will become in-laws."

"This kind of thing, you can discuss it, you don't have to report it to me."

When Zhou Cang said this, Zhou Chong didn't dare to make decisions without authorization. Both he and Zhou Xi regarded themselves as Zhou Cang's retainers.

However, they did not expect that Zhou Cang did not intend to make them his retainers, which would not benefit Zhou Xin in power in the future.Zhou Cang didn't want the two of them to become one, which would turn into a small group, which would be extremely detrimental to Xuzhou's bureaucratic system.Once upon a time, Zhou Cang had thought that if these two people could do their jobs well, they would be given the honor of being buried in Zhou's cemetery after death, but now it seems that this idea has to be completely dismissed.

"One more thing, I wanted to tell you in a few days. Liaodong was initially established, but there are still many remnants of the old forces, and there are also Yuan Shao's undercover agents. There is a shortage of personnel there, and everything is waiting to be done. I don’t worry about sending someone else with the right manpower, I’m going to let Zhou Xi set up the secret espionage department and the supervision department, and concurrently serve as the head of the two departments. In Xuzhou, the supervision department will be temporarily held by Gan Chi.”
