Dominate Marvel

After the banquet, Cao Mengde left five people, Cao Ren, Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Cheng Yu, all the way to the study room. He ordered Dian Wei and Xu Chu to serve as door gods and retreat to the left and right sides.

Now Xiahou Dun is supervising the army on the southern front, and Xiahou Yuan is stationed in Luoyang. Because the southern front is fine, he just transferred Cao Ren back to Puyang not long ago.

After the emperor and his ministers sat down, Cao Mengde said: "The reason why you are staying here is because of this formation diagram."

As he spoke, he carefully took out the brocade silk from his sleeve and unfolded it on the table in front of him.

At a glance, I only saw a picture catalog on the brocade silk, which has five colors: red, white, black, yellow and green. At first glance, it seems that it is endless and circulating, which is quite mysterious. On one side of the catalog is a detailed explanation of the array diagram.

"Array diagram?"

Except for Xi Zhicai, Cao Ren and others were confused.

Cao Mengde and Xi Zhicai nodded and studied the formation map on their own, while Xi Zhicai explained the formation map one by one.

"The last time my lord went to Mr. Zhao's courtyard, he talked about something... Mr. Zhao then talked about the formation of the Five Elements and made this formation diagram. According to Mr. Zhao, training according to the formation diagram can gather the strength of the entire army. With one person, he can tear down mountains and cities at every turn, his power is boundless."

After listening to what Xi Zhicai said, Cao Ren, Xun Yu and others were all dumbfounded.

Xun Yu couldn't help but said: "I have read Taoist classics and have a taste of the beauty of the Five Elements, but there is still such a usage?!"

Cao Ren said: "Mr. Zhao's words must be correct. If so, the eldest brother sweeping the world will be like searching for something. The city is high and the walls are thick, which is useless!"

Everyone was shocked.

However, Xun Yu and others immediately thought of the pros and cons.

Several wise men looked at each other and Xun Yu said: "My lord, this has both advantages and disadvantages, so it must be used with caution."

Cao Mengde suppressed the surprise in his heart and forced his eyes away from the formation map, saying: "What Wen Ruo said is true. Nothing in the world is perfect, and most have mixed benefits and disadvantages. But you don't have to worry, Mr. Zhao proposed the formation map at that time I have the same worries. But Mr. Zhao has a solution."

"oh?!"

Everyone suddenly became happy.

Xun You said: "The people in Mr. Zhao's fairy family are very mysterious and unpredictable. I dare to ask my lord, what is the solution?"

Cao Mengde twisted his beard and said: "Mr. Zhao said that the Five Elements Military Formation is due to the Five Elements Boxing Sutra. The soldiers in the army share life and death, and each practiced the Five Elements Boxing Sutra, so they unknowingly touched the mystery of this place. This Five Elements Military Formation, It is nothing more than the way of formation. Once you can set up an formation, you can break it. But you already have some superficial knowledge of the Immortal family, and there is nothing you can do with other means. Mr. Zhao means to refine a set of... well, the Immortal family's magic weapon, The name is called the Five Elements Formation Flag. As long as you have this treasure in your hand, you can cut off the soldiers' induction, and the military formation will be broken in an instant!"

"oh!"

Everyone was confused and didn't know the secrets of the Immortal family after all.

Xun Yu said: "The Five Elements Formation Flag... sounds really mysterious. Can Mr. Zhao refine this treasure?"

Cao Mengde looked at Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai said: "Mr. Zhao told me about the Five Elements Formation Flag the day before yesterday. He said that this set of flags requires a lot of effort, and I'm afraid I won't be able to make it until March or May."

Today Xu Chu went to get the talisman and also sent dozens of kilograms of high-quality silk collected by Cao Mengde. In fact, the refining of the Five Elements Formation Flag has not yet begun.

In Zhao Yu's view, it would take at least a year and a half to achieve anything with just this volume of formation diagram. Before the military formation is achieved, there is no need to be so anxious about the Five Elements Formation Flag.

Cao Mengde also knew the truth and nodded: "Mr. Zhao has already said something, so there is no need to worry."

Xi Zhicai said: "My lord is right. Mr. Zhao also asked me to tell my lord that on the eve of the completion of the Five Elements Formation Flag, someone will be sent to Puyang and my lord will be asked to go there personally. He said that he wants the magical weapon to identify its owner."

Cao Mengde suddenly smiled and nodded slightly.

Then he said: "It must be too early to do this, so there is no need to rush. This scroll of formation diagram is the key thing right now."

He looked at Cao Ren: "I intend to carry out this formation in my bodyguard first... In the past few days, I have to select elite soldiers to fill the bodyguard, and secondly, I have to eliminate some from the bodyguard. Finally, it will be five elements and five According to the Five Elements Boxing Sutra, there are five hundred people in each sect. There can be no more and no less. Zi Xiao needs to cooperate with Dian Wei Xu Chu in the past few days."

Cao Ren promised: "Brother, don't worry."

Cao Mengde put together the battle plan and said: "Hebei affairs require complete surveillance. I want to know about any movement of Yuan Benzhu. Mr. Gongda should pay more attention. Within two years, I do not plan to use troops. In these two years, the development of People's livelihood is the top priority. In addition, the production of refined steel, the research and development and popularization of agricultural tools, and the research and development and production of soldiers and armors are all top priorities. You must not be negligent."

He added: "I was thinking about gold and copper coins a few days ago. When Dong Zhuo minted coins in Guanzhong, he had already disrupted the five baht. I intend to reorganize the circulation of coins. Wen Ruo will come out with a charter later and take a closer look. Total it up."

Finally, he said: "As soon as I have everything ready, I will send my army straight up, destroy the original state, reach the north of Hebei, and turn around to pacify the world."

...

He followed Zhaoji in the middle of the night, practiced and refined his magic power in the middle of the night, and when Zhao Yu got up early in the morning, Zhaoji was still sleeping soundly. Just like Begonia sleeping in spring, clouds cover the temples, which makes people ready to move.

When I came to the courtyard, I did a little boxing and kicking, and moved around. Then he went out again and wandered around the courtyard. When he came back, Wang Po had prepared breakfast and Zhao Ji had also gotten up.

Dining in other courtyards has always been special.

Guan Hai and other guards from other courtyards were outside, and more than 20 people were dining in Huoyuan. Zhao Yuping usually dines in the wooden courtyard. Along with him were ten disciples, maids, Mrs. Cai, Cai Xiaomei, and Granny Wang's family.

There are two tables inside, but they are still together.

Zhao Yu doesn't really care about the rules. But Wang Po and others were particularly concerned. Zhao Yu did not interfere either.

Nowadays, for Zhao Yu, it is easy to eat and drink. Eating and drinking are just for food and drink and are dispensable. Or getting used to it, or accompanying Zhao Ji, that's all.

After the meal, the disciples swarmed to the water courtyard, followed by Zhao Yu and Zhao Ji. The Shuiyuan is where cultural courses are taught to disciples.

Zhao Yu said to Zhao Ji: "It's a critical moment for the talisman carriage and the ship. In addition, we have to refine a set of magic tools with Meng De, so I'm afraid we won't have enough time. Ang'er and the others have the basics of cultural courses, and I plan to let them study on their own."

Zhao Ji nodded sweetly and said: "Education and guidance are essential when laying the foundation. Now that the foundation has been laid, we must let them learn on their own."

Education in ancient times was completely different from what it was two thousand years later.

After the elementary school, if he knew the words and understood the principles, he would let the disciples learn by themselves. Therefore, even if the base of scholars is not large, the top group of people are often very impressive. Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude is also Confucius' philosophy, and whenever Confucius teaches students, he does not teach what is in the books. If you look at the Analects of Confucius, you will know that Confucius and his disciples inspired them in very subtle ways and made them understand many truths. Most of the time, these disciples teach themselves. When you encounter something you don’t understand, just ask Confucius.

Such concepts and teaching methods have continued to this era. Whether Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong, or Ma Rong before them, these great scholars all used this method to teach their students.

Zhao Yu thinks it makes sense.
