The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 292
That night, after Ma Chao went back, Ma Teng and Han Sui also knew that Dongfang Sheng had wandered outside their camp, but no one else knew about it, Ma Chao and Han Sui fell silent at the same time.

On the second day, the spies sent by Zhang Xiu hurried back to say that Ma Teng and Han Sui had retreated.

Dongfang Sheng was not afraid of Ma Teng and Han Sui, but he didn't want to spend too much time here, because he wanted to strengthen himself while Cao Cao and the others were not really strong.

Since then, all of Yongzhou has fallen into the hands of Dongfang Sheng, and Zhang Xiu is the one who sits in Yongzhou.

Although Cao Cao was unwilling, there was nothing he could do. Yu Jin was seriously injured and his life and death were unknown, which made him lose his mind to compete with Dongfang Sheng for Yongzhou for a while, because at this time he was planning to have a showdown with Yuan Shao.

At this time, Youzhou in the north has basically been unified by Yuan Shao. Except for Gongsun Du in Liaodong and Gongsun Zan who is dying, everyone else has been cleaned up by Yuan Shao. He has become the most powerful man in the north. powerful princes.

At this time, Cao Cao's friendship with this former big brother was not as good as before. When Cao Cao lost Yanzhou, he wanted to go to Yuan Shao, but now he has become the second largest prince after Yuan Shao, and the emperor of Han is with him.

His ambition also changes with the change of realm and strength.

When you only have five dollars in your pocket, you will never think about eating delicacies from mountains and seas, but when the number in your bank card keeps increasing, you will think about trying everything you have never eaten before.

This is ambition, the heart is not enough to swallow the elephant.

Of course, for Dongfang Sheng, what he has to do is actually very simple, to make long distance and close attack, this is the strategy used by Qin Shihuang when he unified the six countries, and it is absolutely effective.

This tactic clearly means to win over the enemies in the distance and attack the enemies who are close to you.

At present, princes from all over the world are also fighting for territory. After Yuan Shu died, Lu Bu and Liu Bei fought first. Sun Ce wanted to annex Liu Yao, and Cao Cao wanted to annex Xuzhou. Everyone was busy.

Dongfang Sheng also returned to Chengdu County at this time. From participating in the suppression of Yuan Shu to fighting for hegemony with Cao Cao in Yongzhou, Dongfang Sheng's reputation gradually spread among the princes.

But while others were busy grabbing territory, Dongfang Sheng was quietly recruiting and training in Chengdu County.

During this period, he also sent someone to contact Yuan Shao, expressing his willingness to form an alliance with him, but Yuan Shao did not reply him immediately.

Dongfang Sheng is not in a hurry, he still has a lot to do.

"Xingba, how is your naval training going?" Dongfang Sheng called Gan Ning over and asked.

"Don't worry, my lord, give me half a year, and I will definitely train an invincible navy for my lord!" Gan Ning said, patting his chest.

"Okay, go get busy first." Dongfang Sheng said with a smile.

With a smile, Gan Ning reached out to pick up a piece called 'biscuit' from the table, and then ran away.

Dongfang Sheng watched Gan Ning run away speechlessly. Not long after, Chen Zhong came back, his face was covered with dust, it seemed that he had been running outside a lot during this time.

"You are back, these days have been hard." Dongfang Sheng said softly after seeing Chen Zhong, "How about the things I asked you to do?"

"Fortunately!" Chen Zhong replied loudly, thinking of his running around Liangzhou, Yanzhou, Jingzhou and Jiangdong these days, Chen Zhong sighed with emotion.

Dongfang Sheng glanced at Chen Chong and said: "Not bad! You have never disappointed me. Let me take a few days off to rest. How much money do you want to go to my uncle?"

"Eh...my lord." Chen Zhong didn't leave immediately, but said hesitantly, "I have something to ask my lord for help."

"The dog is getting old, I want him to go to the lecture hall to study, I don't know...is it possible?"

Dongfang Sheng frowned after hearing Chen Zhong's words: "Do you know the rules of going to the martial arts hall?"

"Once you enter the lecture hall, you will have to serve the imperial court for five years." Chen Zhong said immediately, "Please rest assured, my lord, I will never let him disgrace you!"

"Okay, go to Jia Xu and ask him to arrange for your son to go to school." Dongfang Sheng said with a sigh.

Jiangwutang is a public school founded by Dongfang Sheng. There are not only cultural courses, but also military courses. Of course, the school adopts a fully enclosed militarized management, and once recruited, the tuition is free. Of course, if it is the orphan of a fallen soldier When you reach the age, you are eligible to enter directly without assessment.

However, Dongfang Sheng stipulated that once he entered the lecture hall to study, he must work for the court for five years after graduation.

It is said that it is the imperial court, but it is actually working for Dongfang Sheng, but on the surface it has to be said to be righteous.

Seeing Chen Chongxi leave happily, Dongfang Sheng suddenly felt a little confused.At this time, there were also private schools. With Chen Zhong's conditions, his son could go to a first-class private school. Why did he let his son enter the lecture hall?

Dongfang Sheng naturally didn't know that military technology was completely blocked at this time. Although private private schools can teach culture, they can't teach military-related knowledge. Therefore, if you want to learn military knowledge, you can only learn it in government schools.

"My lord, my lord!?" Dongfang Sheng was interrupted by a voice.

Badao stood in front of Dongfang Sheng with a troubled face and said, "My lord wants me to train in the air force... I'm afraid I won't be able to do it."

Dongfang Sheng stood up with a smile, pressed Badao on the stool and said, "Tell me about the difficulties you have encountered?"

"They were scared, no one dared to jump down in that thing."

Badao sighed and said that he tried his best to convince those soldiers who were not afraid of death on the battlefield to jump down on the wooden platform wearing something invented by Dongfang Sheng.

"Have you demonstrated?" Dongfang Sheng asked.

"Well, I've tried several times, but they just don't dare to dance." Badao said depressingly.

Originally, Dongfang Sheng asked him to secretly train an air force and he was very excited, but when he actually started training, he found that it was not a good job.

Dongfang Sheng suddenly felt that he had misjudged the ideological limitations of people of this era. They may not be afraid of death on the battlefield, but they would still resist some things from the bottom of their hearts.

"Tomorrow I will go to training with you, you prepare the black cloth strips and haystacks." Dongfang Sheng pondered. "I believe you can do it, you won't let me down!"

"Here!"

Badao roared a little excitedly.

Dongfang Sheng wants to build the three armies of sea, land and air, which has always been his thinking. The army is under his own control, the navy is drilled by Gan Ning, and the air force is drilled by Badao.

Now Dongfang Sheng's navy is nothing more than a few larger riverboats, and the so-called air force is just a paratrooper-like unit composed of flying suits and simple parachutes.

But Dongfang Sheng believes that one day, his three armies will be remembered by everyone.
