We'll have you impersonate the Crown Prince and create a prosperous era for the Great Qian Dyna

In his previous life, Zhou Tiancheng was a renowned veteran actor in the entertainment industry, and naturally participated in the filming of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Furthermore, he filmed it more than once!

Classic version, new version, brand new version.

Zhou Tianze has played the roles of Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei.

It could be said that he was involved in all three periods of the Three Kingdoms' tripartite balance of power...

Although he had never read any military books, he knew plenty of ways to sow discord in the Three Kingdoms period!

He studied everything from the simplest gossip to the most elaborate schemes of self-inflicted injury.

"General Lin, which faction in the Northern Frontier do you think poses the greatest threat?"

Zhou Tiancheng turned to look at Lin Tong.

Lin Tong did not hesitate at all.

"Hou Feng!"

This answer surprised Zhou Tiancheng.

"Hou Feng?"

"But among these people, shouldn't Shi Chengyao be the most skilled at training troops?"

Lin Tong nodded slightly.

"Shi Cheng is indeed good at training troops. Five hundred men is not a large battlefield. I have seen his military formation. It seems to be undisciplined, but in reality, it allows the soldiers to perform on their own."

"In this way, Shi Cheng only needs to deepen their brotherhood to boost morale and achieve an effect similar to the spirit of the army."

"If this is just a training exercise, then Shi Cheng is undoubtedly the strongest in the Northern Frontier faction."

"But this competition is not just about training, it also involves actual combat."

"Although hunting ground operations cannot compare to actual battlefield operations, they still require strategic thinking and a broad perspective from the generals."

As he spoke, Lin Tong had already walked up to the sand table.

He pointed to the sand table and began to explain it to Zhou Tianze.

"Shi Cheng is a very straightforward person. When he said he wanted to form an alliance with us and we asked him for help, he didn't hesitate at all. He sent troops to help us deal with the Third Prince on several occasions, which also caused problems in his own camp."

"His army camp was initially located in the core area of ​​the Geng-character zone, which was also the best location to set up camp. However, the first time he ordered an advance of five li, the second time he directly occupied the Third Prince's camp."

"Now that Shi Cheng's camp has moved twice, it will inevitably lead to one result: the defenses of his camp are not that strong."

"On the other hand, Hou Feng and his men stayed in the same spot. The reconnaissance battalion provided five pieces of information: felling trees to make barricades, digging trenches, piling up earth to form mounds, clearing vegetation to expand the area, and building treehouses to gain a better view."

"Hou Feng's camp is now impregnable."

Zhou Tiancheng fell silent.

The barricades are understandable, given that the third brother had cavalry before.

What were trenches used for?

You can dodge arrows!

Piling up earth to form mounds was also to reinforce the defense, preventing attackers from getting up there, and allowing them to take advantage of the situation to injure people.

Clearing the surrounding vegetation is to prevent people from launching sneak attacks.

Not to mention building treehouses, which serve as lookout towers. In the confined space of the hunting grounds, they can climb up and see far and wide, and clearly see everything happening around them!

This Hou Feng probably wanted to use me to pull the third brother along from the very beginning. He set up the camp so securely that he was just waiting to reap the benefits!

"General Lin, so the first person we need to eliminate in the competition is this Hou Feng?"

Lin Tong nodded slightly, then added a sentence.

"There are still some small fry in the hunting grounds. Your Highness's plan was to eliminate the Third Prince first, then deal with these small fry before dealing with Shi Cheng and the others. But now it seems we have to change our plans."

"If we leave the generals of the Northern Frontier faction unchecked, they could attack our main camp as soon as they return while we're cleaning up the smaller forces, and we'll be the first to be eliminated."

Zhou Tiancheng nodded slightly.

"In that case, General Lin, I plan to send someone to sow discord, using the prize money from the competition as bait. What do you think?"

Lin Tong nodded, but then shook his head.

"I'm afraid the people of the Northern Frontier won't be fooled so easily. After all, they defeated us first, so this spot still belongs to them."

Zhou Tiancheng chuckled softly.

"Isn't that easy to handle?"

"His Highness the Third Prince left behind so many warhorses; now, it's not His Highness the Third Prince who commands cavalry, but our National Protection Army!"

"With cavalry at my command, whoever I want to win, that's who wins. I refuse to believe they won't be tempted!"

"Furthermore, General Lin, while I may not be as skilled as you in leading troops into battle, I have my own methods for manipulating people's hearts and minds. Just watch, I guarantee these three will be thrown into chaos first!"

Lin Tong burst into laughter.

Right.

Zhou Tianze's cavalry had been defeated; the men had left, but the horses remained.

With a little training, these warhorses would be a great asset to the National Protection Army.

With cavalry, one is almost invincible, which is why everyone is so wary of Zhou Tianze's cavalry!

"If Your Highness trusts me, how about I take command of this cavalry?"

Zhou Tiancheng readily agreed, and then arranged for the sowing of discord.

On the spot, a soldier ran towards Shi Cheng and his men's camp.

now.

Shi Cheng and other generals from the Northern Frontier faction have already assembled.

The main generals are Shi Cheng, Hou Feng, and Sun Tong.

The three of them were sitting together in the middle of the group, still somewhat wary of each other, but they were also showing sincerity as they discussed how to deal with the Crown Prince.

Before they could reach a conclusion, they heard that the Crown Prince had sent a soldier.

Shi Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then had someone bring the soldier up.

The soldier glanced at the three of them and then spoke loudly.

"My lord has said that His Majesty will not allow him to lead troops into battle in the northern frontier. If we win the championship this time, His Highness will give the spot to one of the three generals!"

"I wonder if anyone is willing to form an alliance with my prince?"

The three of them burst into laughter.

"Your Highness, you're seriously underestimating us by trying to sow discord among us."

"Once we kick His Highness the Crown Prince out of the competition, this spot will still be ours!"

The soldier shook his head.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of there."

"My lord has defeated the Third Prince's main force and captured over three hundred warhorses. Now, our National Protection Army has its own cavalry battalion. Do you really think you can handle my lord?"

"Furthermore... General Sun, your camp is the furthest away. If you join them in attacking my prince, my National Protection Army's cavalry will march directly to your camp. At that point, you'll be the first one eliminated!"

Sun Tong's face darkened. He looked at the map on the table and immediately realized that what the soldier said was true.

If they were to attack the Crown Prince, the enemy cavalry could bypass their main force and their first target would be Sun Tong!

Because his army is here, there is no way to return to defend in a short period of time!

"For this alliance, I will only contribute 250 men; the remaining 250 will be used to defend the camp!"

Sun Tong immediately expressed his thoughts, then looked up at Hou Feng and Shi Cheng.

The latter all frowned in unison.

You're only sending 250 people?

If we fight the Crown Prince to the death, wouldn't that just benefit you, Sun Tong?

"No!"

Neither of them agreed.

From this point on, cracks began to appear in the alliance between the three.
