The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 352 Tian Chou
Dongfang Sheng called Fazheng over to discuss the specific matters of conquering Wuhuan. Although Fazheng had seen people well, he couldn't think of a good way for a while.

The main reason is that the road from Ji County, the governor of Youzhou, to Youbeiping County is all muddy and low-lying land, and this road has completely turned into a dead end that is difficult to pass.

There is abundant rain in autumn and summer, and the mud and water cannot pass boats, but horses and chariots cannot.

In this way, Dongfang Sheng's progress was severely blocked, and at the same time, Dongfang Sheng also felt Yuan Xi's helplessness.

If horses and chariots cannot pass, food and grass cannot be transported in time. Of course, there are tools for siege, weapons and armor. If the horses cannot pass, the cavalry is just a decoration. When facing Wuhuan cavalry like that, Dongfang Sheng knows the result without thinking. .

Dongfangsheng sent an urgent letter back to Yizhou to ask Jia Xu for advice, but Jia Xu only replied with two words 'Tianchou'.

Dongfang Sheng saw that it was a person's name and asked the people from the scout battalion to check it out, but the final result surprised Dongfang Sheng.

This Tian Chou is actually quite famous in Youzhou, Yuan Shao and his son wanted to recruit him, but unfortunately he didn't come out.At first he was Liu Yu's subordinate. Liu Yu was Youzhou Mu who was killed by Gongsun Zan. Later, Tian Chou was caught by Gongsun Zan because he went to pay homage to Liu Yu. The people of the clan went back to hermit directly.

Tian Chou formulated laws on murder, theft, and litigation for everyone, stipulating that those who committed serious crimes should be sentenced to death, and those who committed crimes should be punished. There are more than 20 laws in total.He also formulated the etiquette of weddings and funerals, set up schools to teach knowledge, and promulgated them to everyone.Everyone is familiar with it, to the point of not picking up lost things on the road.The people in the northern border area gathered one after another and obeyed his prestige. Karasuma and Xianbei also sent envoys to deliver tribute, and Tian Chou accepted and comforted them so that they would not invade again.

After learning about Tian Chou's deeds, Dongfang Sheng couldn't help but feel emotional: This man is really a model of a capable official.

But just such a person can help him survive the endless?Dongfang Sheng was a little puzzled, but since Jia Xu said it, he must have his reasons, so Dongfang Sheng has already set off to visit Tian Chou in person.

As soon as Dongfang Sheng arrived in Wuzhu, someone came to his door, saying that Tian Chou's relatives wanted to invite Dongfang Sheng to their house as a guest.

On the one hand, Dongfang Sheng was amazed at Tian Chou's sharp eyes and ears, but on the other hand, he was also puzzled. Why is Tian Chou so eager to see him?
Dongfang Sheng and Dongfang Leopard went directly to the place where Tian Chou lived in seclusion with a confused head.

Peach Blossom Spring!As soon as Dongfang Sheng stepped into Tian Chou's hermitage, the name of a place appeared in his mind.

Everyone's faces are filled with happy smiles, there is no war, no famine, no various rebellious thieves, only the order established by Tian Chou.

Dongfang Leopard said with emotion: "It's like my former cottage. Everyone went out to rob and share equally when they came back. Drink wine and eat meat if you have any. It's fun and happy!"

Dongfang Sheng listened to Dongfang Leopard's unsightly words with some relief. After all, the definition of happiness is different for everyone, and Dongfang Leopard's happiness may not necessarily be happiness.

The place where Tian Chou lives is the cleanest, a small bamboo house that lives alone, there are yellow chrysanthemums blooming at the door, and some students are shaking their heads reading in the yard.

A middle-aged man wearing a blue linen robe, a lun scarf, and a beard fluttering in the wind was standing with his hands behind his back, looking at Dongfang Sheng in the yard.

"Your Excellency is Tian Chou Tian Zitai?" Dongfang Sheng stepped forward and asked.

"Please follow me, Zitai is inside." The middle-aged man led the way politely.

Some incense was burning in the bamboo house, and Dongfang Sheng took a deep breath and immediately felt refreshed. Obviously, the incense was very valuable.

After the middle-aged man led Dongfang Sheng to the door, he retreated consciously.

In the room, a man in his thirties was holding a book and reading it with great interest. He didn't put down the book in his hand until Dongfang Sheng sat down opposite him and said, "Are you Dongfang Sheng, the benevolent general?"

"It's right here." Dongfang Sheng nodded and said, "I don't know why Brother Zitai is looking for me?"

Tian Chou glanced at Dongfang Leopard, Dongfang Sheng smiled and said, "Brother Zitai, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Tian Chou looked Dongfang Sheng up and down, and said: "Wuhuan often kills our compatriots for no reason. This incident has reached an unbearable level. I want to use the general's sword."

Dongfang Sheng's eyes lit up, but when he thought of the muddy road without end, his heart suddenly cooled down.

"General, you don't have to worry about this endless bad road. Since I called the general, there must be a secret way for the general to go directly to Liucheng." Tian Chou said with a slight smile: "Pinggang, where the old Beiping County Government was located, said that Lulong went directly to Liucheng, although This road is no longer traveled by people, but I know that there is a small road that can still be passed."

"Good! Good! Good!" Dongfang Sheng said yes three times in a row, "In this way, breaking Wuhuan is just around the corner."

Tian Chou said with a smile: "The general can also set up a wooden stake to express the meaning that the truth is muddy and cannot advance. This can paralyze them. When the general's magical soldiers approach Liucheng, Wuhuan will be destroyed without attack!"

"Wuhuan has Tadun Shanyu, Liaoxi has Louban, and Youbeiping has Wuyan. Together, these few people have tens of thousands of cavalry. This is what I know."

"Tens of thousands of cavalry, hehe, this time I will let them know the power of my heavy armored knight." Dongfang Sheng smiled and made Tian Chou shudder.

Because Dongfang Sheng's smile seemed to be the feeling of a hunter finding his prey, Tian Chou was a little afraid of Dongfang Sheng's smile, but he hated those Wuhuan tribes who killed innocent people even more.

Speaking of the heavy armored cavalry, Dongfang Sheng still benefited from the newly surrendered pirate Huang Bo. This guy has been floating on the sea for a long time, and he even bought some complete sets of heavy armored knight suits from some countries in the Western Regions.

Dongfang Sheng also saw these heavy armors when he received Huang Bo. Dongfang Sheng knew that the heavy armor would kill the light cavalry, so he immediately sent Huang Bo to go to sea to buy the heavy armor.

The Western heavy armor is somewhat similar to the Eastern large armor, but the production of the large armor takes more time. In comparison, it is less labor-intensive to go directly to the West to buy heavy armor.

Western armor, the silver-white breastplate and the back are connected together, the arms and lower limbs are separated, and the front of the helmet is a 'T'-shaped structure that allows the eyes and mouth to be exposed.

When Dongfang Sheng thought of the five hundred heavily armored knights equipped with these western armors that looked like cans rushing towards the enemy's light cavalry on the battlefield, he couldn't help feeling excited.
