Just after noon, Yuan Shu stayed alone in the study, studying books on battle formations. Speaking of which, Yuan Shu really had no talent. Apart from his superior knowledge and proficiency in tactics, he had almost no other strengths. His superior knowledge is all due to his past life memories, and his Machiavellian skills are due to his family. Machiavellian tactics are not about government skills, but about how to fight for power and profit. However, after the reform, Yuan Shu only firmly controlled the military power, and all government powers were decentralized, so there was no room for Machiavellian tactics. In this way, the only thing Yuan Shu can really rely on is his own superior knowledge, which is obviously insufficient. In order to go further on the road to world hegemony, Yuan Shu made up his mind and planned to 'enrich' himself. Yuan Shu holds military power, so he naturally has to work hard on military formations. In the military formation, there is nothing more than training, commanding, strategies, and formations. Military training is the first thing to be eliminated. Yuan Shu once informed the generals of some training methods of later generations, which indeed had some effects, but it is obviously impossible to become a master of military training based on this alone. If this were not the case, Yuan Shu would not have gone to great lengths to surrender Gao Shun. There is no shortage of commander-in-chief Yuan Shu. As early as the conquest of the Yellow Turbans, Yuan Shu had already begun to lead troops in battles. Over the years, he fought in Huainan and Jiangdong, which greatly improved his commanding ability. Yuan Shu felt that his commanding ability was already good enough and there was no need to strengthen it. As for the strategy, Yuan Shu believed that he was not qualified enough. He had read a lot of military books, but he could not use them flexibly, let alone understand them thoroughly, so he had no choice but to give up. In the end, only the formation is left. Yuan Shu is quite interested in the formation. Although he does not think that the formation will be as magical as the rumors, but since the formation can be passed down for thousands of years, it must have its uniqueness. So, Yuan Shu made up his mind and began to study the formation. The more he studied it, the more Yuan Shu was amazed. The formation was truly wonderful. Although it could not reverse the situation and neutralize millions of soldiers, it could have unexpected effects under certain circumstances. Based on this alone, Yuan Shu was satisfied, and his painstaking research was not in vain. ¡ ¡ ¡°It¡¯s really magical!¡± After reading a formation, Yuan Shu couldn¡¯t help but praise it. What Yuan Shu had just seen was the Bagua Formation created by Sun Bin, a military master of the Warring States Period. It is said that Sun Bin was inspired by the Bagua diagram in the Book of Changes and created the Bagua formation. Specifically, the general was in the center, with a team of regular soldiers on each side. There were four teams of strange soldiers between the regular soldiers, forming eight formations. The eight formations are scattered into eight and then become one again. They can be divided into sixty-four formations. Of course, Yuan Shu has just started and can only study the simplest Bagua array. Even so, Yuan Shu felt that the harvest was not small. Close your eyes and deduce the changes in the Bagua array in your mind, completely immersed in it and unable to extricate yourself. Suddenly, I heard a voice coming from outside the door. "In the name of Master Gu Yong, I have come to report something to my lord." Suddenly, Yuan Shu's thoughts were instantly disrupted, and the formation in his mind seemed to become chaotic. "Bah!" Yuan Shu slapped his palm heavily on the case in front of him and shouted: "What's the matter!" The people outside the door were startled. They didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so angry, and secretly complained in their hearts. "What a bad luck! Why did the Lord get upset at this time?" These days, Yuan Shu has been studying formations. If he figures out a problem, he will naturally feel very comfortable. However, if he encounters a problem, he will get angry for no reason. It's what people often call moody. Nowadays, there are some rumblings in the whole house. When passing by Yuan Shu's study, he didn't dare to step too hard for fear of causing unnecessary disaster. Gu Yong and others sometimes send people to report some things, and they are also aware of Yuan Shu's changes. This person received this job. Although he was reluctant in every way, he did not dare to disobey Gu Yong's order. He could only hope that he would meet Yuan Shu when he was in a good mood. "It's a pity that this person is unlucky. Yuan Shu was deducing the formation, but he was interrupted. How could he be in a good mood?" "What's the matter? Tell me!" came a roar. Suddenly, the man's whole body trembled, and he said tremblingly: "Gu Gu Lord Gu Yong ordered his subordinates to come and report to the lord. Xu Xu The envoy from Xuzhou has arrived. Dare dare dare to invite the lord to see you in the lobby. They're on the same side." After finally finishing speaking, the man let out a long breath and was almost soaked. But immediately his heart started to rise again, and there was no movement in the room, as if it was the calm before the storm. "Should my lord"I want" This man did not dare to think any more. After a long time, Yuan Shu's faint voice came from the room: "I know! " "My subordinates resign! " After the words fell, the man turned around and left in a hurry, as if running for his life. In the room, Yuan Shu frowned and murmured: "Messenger from Xuzhou? What are they here for? " After thinking for a while, Yuan Shu still couldn't figure it out. He simply stopped thinking about it and got up and walked to the official residence. When he arrived at the official residence, he didn't see Gu Yong, let alone the Xuzhou envoy. Yuan Shu didn't call for a call and sat quietly. In the main position, I started to deduce the formation in my mind again. I don¡¯t know how long it took. Suddenly, I heard someone calling: "Lord! " "Damn it! " His thoughts were interrupted again, Yuan Shu cursed secretly in his heart, and opened his eyes to look. "I don't know when there were three more people in the hall, but Yuan Shu knew that two of them were Gu Yong and Sun Qian, but the other one was No image. ¡°Yeah! Yuan Shu first nodded to Gu Yong, then glanced at Sun Qian, and finally landed on the stranger. "Who are you?" "Yuan Shu asked. "I'm here, Mi Zhu, to pay my respects to General Yuan. "Mi Zhu bowed. "Mi Zhu? Yuan Shu looked at it with interest and said, "I have also heard about the Mi family in Xuzhou." So you are also the envoy of Xuzhou? Ah! Isn't Liu Bei's battle small? " When talking about Liu Bei, a cold light flashed in Yuan Shu's eyes, and Mi Zhu looked at him. "It seems that the general is also wary of Liu Bei! Mi Zhu thought to himself. Of course, Mi Zhu doesn't care about this. He has already planned to abandon Liu Bei. Yuan Shu's attitude towards Liu Bei is no longer important to him. But Yuan Shu's ability to recognize people makes Mi Zhu admire a little. How about Liu Bei? He had a deep understanding of it. Speaking of it, Yuan Shu had only met Liu Bei once (discussing Dong), but he could see that he was extraordinary, which showed that Mi Zhu had no way of knowing that Yuan Shu had memories of his previous life. How could he know who Liu Bei is! "Yuan Shu is indeed a wise master! But" Now that he has decided to abandon Liu Bei, he naturally needs to find a new supporter. Yuan Shu is undoubtedly the ideal choice, but Mi Zhu is hesitant. It is not that Yuan Shu is not good, but because he is afraid that others will look down on him. "That's all! If you can invest, do so. Even if you can't, you will have to move your family to Huainan or Jiangdong. This is better than following Liu Bei. Mi Zhu secretly thought in his heart. At this time, Sun Qian saw that Mi Zhu had not spoken for a long time. Seeing the impatience on Yuan Shu's face, he hurriedly pulled Mi Zhu. Mi Zhu woke up in surprise and hurriedly said: "The general's courage is amazing. I'm doing this for you." Shocked, my mind went blank, I actually forgot to reply, please forgive me. " "hehe! Yuan Shu chuckled lightly and said, "You are quite good at talking." " He raised his hand and pointed to the guest seat and said to the two of them, "Sit down. " "Thank you, General! Mi Zhu and Sun Qian said in unison.?¡
