Chapter 247

"What the hell are these?"

Su Li could not help but flip through these messy books, wanting to criticize them properly.

They were simply an eyesore.

Then, for every page of every book, Su Li criticized them properly.

"..."

One of the books particularly caught Su Li's attention.

The cover of this book was tattered and did not have any name.

It looked plain and unremarkable.

But the content inside was exceptionally stylish.

"The formation of the two instruments, the deployment of troops, and the chaos of the ranks are called changes; there are also the formations of the four symbols and eight trigrams, which are called escapes..."

This book was somewhat obscure and difficult to understand, 5. vaguely containing the way of marching and deploying troops, but unfortunately, it was very thin, and it looked like a remnant.

So Su Li quickly scanned it once.

However, at this moment.

A system prompt sounded.

"Ding! You have read the rare military book "Six Secret Teachings - Martial Teachings," comprehended the military book characteristic "Martial Teachings," and your Command attribute +10!"

Please subscribe, please send flowers, please rate!!!

"Ding! You have read the rare military book "Six Secret Teachings - Martial Teachings," comprehended the military book characteristic "Martial Teachings," and your Command attribute +10!"

"Ding! "Six Secret Teachings" is bound to you; others reading this book will no longer receive rewards."

Su Li had just finished reading when he saw the system prompt, and he could not help but be happy.

He did not expect that reading could actually improve the Command attribute.

Sure enough, he should have studied hard in the past.

The teacher did not deceive me.

【★★★ Characteristic】: Martial Teachings

【Effect】: All unit attributes +30%, morale +30%. Can be combined with "Civil Teachings," "Martial Teachings," "Dog Teachings," "Leopard Teachings," "Tiger Teachings," and "Dragon Teachings" to form the god-level characteristic "Six Secret Teachings."

So this was actually the Six Secret Teachings military strategy from the pre-Qin era...

Looking at the prompt, Su Li's eyes brightened.

The Six Secret Teachings, namely Civil, Martial, Dragon, Tiger, Leopard, and Dog, are rumored to be the military book written by the ancestor of the military school, the Martial Saint Jiang Ziya, so it is also known as "Taigong's Art of War," divided into six volumes.

Among them, Civil Teachings — discusses the strategy of governing the country and employing people;

Martial Teachings — discusses the strategy of military formations;

Dog Teachings — discusses the command and training of the army.

Leopard Teachings — discusses tactics;

Tiger Teachings — discusses the war environment, weapons 30, and deployment;

Dragon Teachings — discusses military organization;

Now this remnant volume is the Martial Teachings that discusses military formations.

It can increase the attributes and morale of all units under one's command by 30%.

It can be said that the effect is very powerful.

"These Black Mountain bandits really don't know good goods; they didn't even discover such a good thing. Fortunately, I didn't miss it... Take all these books back!"

Su Li was worried about missing something, so he simply took all the books away.

In case he discovered any other rare military books, that would be a huge profit.

But in reality, among a pile of books, discovering one "Six Secret Teachings" was already a heaven-defying luck.

After looting the Black Mountain Army's stronghold in Changshan Commandery, Su Li returned with his troops fully loaded.

Just as he returned to White Cloud City.

Suddenly, a Han cavalryman came galloping on a fast horse.

"I am the Registrar of Changshan Commandery, here specifically to seek help, it is a matter of life and death, take me to see Lord Su, Master Su!"

Su Li looked at him with a smile, "To tell you the truth, I am the Lord Su you speak of!"

That Han cavalryman was stunned, but he quickly reacted: "Master Su, the Black Mountain Army channel commander Zhang Zhang Niujiao is attacking Zhending County in Changshan Commandery! The County Magistrate and County Commandant of Zhending County have both died in battle, and the Administrator's side is unable to provide support."

"I was specifically sent to seek help from you, saying that only you can resolve the crisis in Zhending County!"

That Han cavalryman said with a hurried expression.

"The Zhending County Magistrate died in battle..."

Su Li's gaze sank slightly.

He had met the Zhending County Magistrate once.

He felt that this Zhending County Magistrate was not bad.

He had sent him three hundred cavalry.

Now hearing the news of his death, he felt a little sympathy in his heart.

However, this might not be an opportunity.

Since Zhending County is currently without a master.

Perhaps...

A bold idea appeared in Su Li's heart.

"Reorganize the troops, march to Zhending City!"

Su Li knew that a certain opportunity had arrived; he could completely use the banner of resisting the Black Mountain Army to carve out Zhending County.

Zhending County is actually not very far from White Cloud City; in the future, when White Cloud City develops and expands, it can also be merged with Zhending City.

So Su Li handed the surrendered Black Mountain Army troops to Bai Hao, and then led Zhao Yu and the others to Zhending City.

…………

Zhending City, the city was in chaos.

The County Magistrate was the highest official, and the County Commandant was in charge of the military within the county; both of them had now died in battle, and the garrison in the city was leaderless.

"The Black Mountain Army leader Zhang Zhang Niujiao is about to arrive, we should leave this city as soon as possible!"

Players participating in the defense of Zhending City saw that the situation was bad and began to flee the city one after another.

In such regional campaigns, surrounding players would receive temporary tasks.

Seeing that the situation was bad, they naturally had to start retreating.

Changshan Commandery already had several such county cities broken by the Black Mountain Army, and everyone was in danger.

Actually, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the reason why the chaotic times were formed was not just because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in various places.

Among them were the Black Mountain Army, the White Wave Army, the Taishan Bandits, and bandits and water pirates ravaging various places.

Besides this, there were also the Western Zhang Zhang Qiang, Southern Barbarians, Shanyue, Wuhuan, Xianbei, and other alien races causing trouble, which led to the entire Eastern Han Dynasty facing collapse.

However, at the critical moment when Zhending City was in danger, a cavalry troop entered the city!

"Greetings, Lord Su!"

The officials of Zhending City saw the arriving Su Li as if they had seen a savior.

Although Su Li did not have any official position.

But his current reputation could be said to be in full swing, famous throughout Jizhou.

Su Li also did not stand on ceremony: "Today I received the order from the Changshan Administrator to come and rescue Zhending County, and I will temporarily take charge of the affairs of Zhending County. Does anyone have any objections?"

Since the Changshan Administrator chose him to come and rescue Zhending County, he needed to pay a certain price — acknowledging his control over Zhending County.

Many Zhending officials looked at each other; if it were in the past, they would certainly oppose an outsider intervening in Zhending's affairs.

But the current situation was that the Black Mountain Army was about to arrive at the city walls, and if they did not do something, they would certainly become ghosts under the blades of the thieves.

There was no need to think too much; many Zhending officials said in unison: "We are willing to follow your orders!"

"Good! You all maintain order in the city."

"Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, you two immediately go to the city wall to deploy defenses!"

"Sister Xiao Yu, follow me to reorganize the defeated troops of Zhending County."

Su Li immediately began to deploy, trying to restore the defense of Zhending County as soon as possible before the Black Mountain Army leader Zhang Zhang Niujiao arrived.
