To be honest, it has been more than a year since Li Changkong traveled to Daqian.
This year, my impression of Daqian scholars was not very good.
Among the scholars in Daqian, there are also great talents like the three elders of the cabinet and Li Shanchang, the imperial wine minister.
There are also young heroes such as He Taibai, Chen Dao, and Li Mojie.
But most people are extremely pedantic, and they go to extreme lengths to gain fame!
What's more, Li Changkong has not forgotten the scene not long ago when a group of scholars went to Wulinghou Mansion to cause trouble and gain fame.
If he didn't want to resort to violence, he would have had the urge to lock everyone in that day.
Therefore, when he heard that there were scholars blocking his way, he seemed a little impatient.
"Let's go and have a look." After saying that, he opened the curtain of the carriage and walked out.
However, as soon as the car curtain was opened, what came into view was a sea of people.
At a glance, it is inexhaustible.
"Uncle Anbei was ordered to go to Jizhou to recruit troops. Get out of the way quickly!" Zhen Jian said.
As soon as they heard that they were recruiting soldiers, the crowd immediately dispersed like birds and animals, fearing that if they took a step too slow, they would be captured and used as new recruits.
After the crowd dispersed, what appeared in the eyes of Li Changkong and others was a group of scholars wearing blue shirts and Confucian robes.
The leader, Li Changkong, even looked a little familiar.
After thinking about it for a moment, I remembered that the person who took the lead in making trouble in Wulinghou Mansion seemed to be named Fan Zhong.
"What do you mean by kneeling here to block my conscription?" Li Changkong scolded with a displeased look on his face.
Unexpectedly, when Fan Zhong heard Li Changkong's voice, instead of feeling sad, he became happy and said, "General, we have heard everything about what happened in the court!"
"Now that the country is in critical condition, as scholars, we should stand up and do our part to protect our country!"
"I also heard that the general happened to be going to Jizhou to recruit troops. He came here to abandon his civil service and join the military. He has been waiting here for a long time just to join the army!"
As soon as this statement came out, the onlookers couldn't help but look at each other in shock.
It's too late for them to avoid conscription. Could it be that these scholars have their brains damaged by reading? Why are they still rushing to join the army?
Even Li Changkong was a little surprised when he heard this.
Although he really wanted to accept this group of people and set an example for the people of Daqian, he still suspected that this group of people wanted to show off and gain fame.
Therefore, after much consideration, Li Changkong still did not agree, but continued to ask: "Do you all think so?"
"That's natural! Everyone is responsible for the survival of our country! We have read books and learned principles for so many years. If we don't stand up and practice what we have learned at this time, wouldn't we be ashamed of the saints? Master, are you even more ashamed of the truth in your heart?"
Hearing this, Li Changkong couldn't help but nodded, and his doubts disappeared a lot.
"But you are just literati after all. You can't lift it with your hands or carry it on your shoulders. What's the point of joining the army?" Li Changkong asked again.
When Fan Zhong heard this, he was a little angry and said: "Sir, don't underestimate us! We may have military generals in our families, or we may have transformed from martial arts. Therefore, we have some martial arts foundation in our bodies. ."·
Hearing this, Li Changkong became completely interested. He nodded and said to Zhen Jian beside him: "We've been there before, so don't hurt others."
Hearing this, Zhen Jian nodded, got up and got out of the car, and walked towards Fan Zhong.
Although he was born as a servant of the Marquis of Wuling Mansion, he was not weak in strength.
Coupled with the inhumane training he has endured in the Royal Forest Army in the past few months, his martial arts strength has improved by leaps and bounds, but it is definitely not something that these powerless scholars can match.
If the young master hadn't said not to hurt others, he would have really wanted these arrogant people to suffer.
"Come on, let me make the first move!" Zhen Jian said confidently.
Hearing this, Fan Zhong felt that he was being looked down upon, but he was not angry. Instead, he sneered: "That's offending!"
Then he rushed towards Zhen Jian quickly, waited until he was in front of him, raised his foot, and greeted Zhen Jian's face.
Feeling the strong wind blowing against his face, Zhen Jian immediately put away his contempt and turned to prepare for it!
While squatting down, he swept out his leg and attacked Fan Zhong's other standing leg.
When Fan Zhong saw this, he sneered again.
This is a flaw that he deliberately sells. He is not afraid that the other party will attack, but he is afraid that the other party will not attack!
The right leg that kept the body stable exerted force and also rose into the air.
At the same time, his body was spinning in the air like a top.
After rotating 360 degrees, using the inertia brought by the rotation, he kicked Zhen Jian in the head again!
This kick is so powerful! Coming with a strong and swift wind!
Zhen Jian secretly thought it was not good, but he had no time to put his feet back and could only raise his arms to block the door.
boom!
There was a loud noise, and the arms and the soles of the feet collided.
Zhen Jian was kicked, his center of gravity suddenly became unstable, and he fell backward to the ground.
At this time, Fan Zhong landed smoothly.
He cupped his hands towards Zhen Jian who was sitting on the ground and said, "I accept."
When Zhen Jian heard this, he thought of what he had just said, and suddenly felt embarrassed. He had lost all face!
Without saying a word, he just got up, left quickly, and hid behind the carriage.
"May I ask Uncle Anbei, am I qualified to join the army?"
Li Changkong also laughed when he heard this.
He found that he was wrong, even a little bit wrong.
People are multi-faceted.
Some scholars certainly love fame and seek fame and reputation.
However, there are many outstanding young people among scholars who are willing to sacrifice their lives and blood for their country!
These people are the pillars of the country!
"good very good!"
"Zhen Jian is the captain of the Royal Forest Army. If you can defeat him, you are certainly qualified."
"I just don't know if the people behind you are as talented as you in both civil and military skills."
"I don't dare to deceive the general. Although these brothers below are equally skilled in both civil and military skills, they are indeed slightly better than me in terms of boxing and kicking skills."
"But I can guarantee that they are definitely above the level of ordinary soldiers."
"Okay!" Li Changkong was overjoyed when he heard this and said, "Then you, I, will take it all!"
After thinking about it, Li Changkong took off the jade pendant from his waist, threw it to Fan Zhong, and said, "This jade is made of the finest mutton-fat white jade, and it was carved by one of the best carvers in the capital."
"At least there are seven or eight hundred taels!"
"Take it and exchange it for some silver to give to you and your brothers to help you settle down!"
Fan Zhong took the jade pendant, but he was a little surprised.
He is a scholar, and those who can afford to study and even learn martial arts must have a good family background, so he was really confused by Li Changkong's operation of directly giving money.
The scholars behind him couldn't help but look at each other. They joined the army to serve the country, not for money.
However, Li Changkong didn't care so much and shouted directly to the onlookers: "In this recruitment, everyone who joins the army will have a settlement allowance, starting with ten taels of silver!"
"If you die in battle, you will receive a pension, starting with one hundred taels of silver!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was in an uproar!
