As time went by and a few months passed, the students at the Jinling Martial Arts Hall became accustomed to practicing and studying. With good physical fitness, they became more comfortable.
One day off in seven days is a holiday. Get up at Mao hour and go to sleep with the whistle blowing at the beginning of the month. Seven hours of daytime and five hours of rest. The half-hour lunch includes rest time, and cultural subjects are basically arranged in the morning.
However, this is an early arrangement. When the queue exercises and physical training are completed, cultural subjects will be held in the morning and afternoon, and the training seems to be easier.
After getting up, I went for a ten-mile cross-country run in full gear, and an hour of training in formation, walking, running, goose-stepping, back and forth, left and right. In the middle, subjects such as sit-ups, single and parallel bars, push-ups, balance beams, and return runs will be arranged. Before dinner, there is another ten-mile cross-country run.
High jump, long jump, wall climbing, obstacle climbing, etc., which relieved the students' boredom to a certain extent.
The dormitory was neat and tidy, the quilts had sharp edges and corners, the floor was spotless and ridiculously neat, and the doors and windows were abnormally clean.
After a day of study and training, most students can adapt. But for people with poor physical constitution like Zhen Zhidao, it is often a torment.
"Maushidao, hold on! Just hold it in, you'll get used to it."
Roommates Zhu Shan and Kan Zhenzhidao were paralyzed on the bunk, motionless, and asked kindly.
I don’t know how this guy passed the entrance exam for the Martial Arts Hall with his stature?
As the son of Jin Dexiu, who was involved in political affairs, the officer who was conducting the assessment might be very merciful.
"If I had known that the training in the martial arts hall was so tiring, I wouldn't have come here even if I were killed!"
Zhen Dexiu lay on the bunk and replied weakly.
If there weren't so many students in the martial arts hall and the encouragement of so many brothers, he would have skipped school long ago.
"Zhen Yanei, the martial arts hall is great. You can learn things and have a beautiful lady to watch. What a great thing! If I can stay here for the rest of my life, I am willing!"
Cao Shixiong washed his face with a smile on his face. He is optimistic by nature and full of enthusiasm for life.
"That's right! Especially Li Siyu from the Medical Department, Tingting Niao Niao, I feel pity for you, my heart beats faster every time, isn't it, student Cao Shixiong?"
Zhu Shanyu smiled at Cao Shixiong.
Yu Jie and Zhen Zhidao looked at each other and both laughed. Zhen Zhidao's fatigue has also gone away a lot.
This kid Cao Shixiong has been looking for opportunities to get close to Li Siyu all day long, and he is obviously interested in Li Siyu.
"Zhen Yanei, I see that Wu Min, after practicing for more than two months, his legs are long and his waist is thin, he has a different taste, isn't he?"
Cao Shixiong's counterattack made the smile on Zhen Zhidao's face suddenly disappear.
"Don't mention it, those female students put on the uniforms of the martial arts hall, and after training, they all seemed to have changed. Especially Wu Min, who used to be big and round, now has long legs and thin waist. That coquettish one is indeed It makes people salivate. Zhenzhidao, how does it taste?"
Yu Jie's embellished words made Zhen Zhidao blush even more.
"Zhen Zhidao, you can't really be with Wu Min... in the woods behind or outside the school?"
When it came to matters between men and women, Cao Shixiong immediately became very interested.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We haven't met each other a few times, how is that possible?"
Zhenzhidao immediately shook his head in denial.
"Cao Shixiong, don't talk nonsense. Do you think that the martial arts hall is a brothel and you can do nonsense? If the instructor hears it, you may be detained or even kicked out of the martial arts hall!"
Yu Jie took off her clothes and rubbed her body. The abdominal muscles were vaguely visible.
"I know, it's just a joke in the dormitory, and I will never talk nonsense outside."
Cao Shixiong put away his playful smile and said seriously.
The school rules of the martial arts hall are strict. If you dare to do random things between men and women, once you are discovered, you will definitely end badly.
"Lao Yu, where are you going?"
Cao Shixiong looked at the neatly dressed Yu Jie and asked in surprise.
"I'll go to the surveying and mapping room. There are some problems with positive and negative proportions. I'll try to figure it out."
Yu Jie waved his hand, turned around and walked out of the dormitory door.
The surveying and mapping room is specially designed for studying military tactics, drawing maps, sand tables, and soil and sand models. There are various models of towns and fortresses, rivers and mountains, lakes and bridges. When students are studying tactical issues or building a sandbox, they can use various models to enrich the sandbox and see it clearly at a glance.
"Cao Shixiong, do you see it? This is the difference. Lao Yu is very ambitious and will definitely become a general in the future. If you don't believe it, just wait and see."
Zhenzhidao shook his head and turned over to make himself more comfortable.
"Lao Yu takes the principal as an example and pretends to be a big deal. The principal favors him. If he doesn't succeed in his career, it will be unjust!"
Zhu Shanyu was also filled with emotion and said enviously.
In a military system like Jiangwutang, the level of personal quality is clear at a glance. He believes that he is no match for Yu Jie.
While Zhu Shanyu was envious and jealous, Cao Shixiong also stood up and got dressed.
"My shooting skills are not good enough. I'll go out and think about artillery for a while."
Yu Jie and Cao Shixiong left one after another, and Zhen Zhidao and Zhu Shanyu lay down one after another.
The training was boring and intense, and the two of them really didn't have the energy or mood to further their own studies.
Yu Jie entered the surveying and mapping room. Brother Cao Youwen was making a sand table. Looking at the shapes of mountains and rivers in the sand table frame, it seemed that the sand table was mostly completed.
"Cao Youwen, I'm late!"
Yu Jie was a little embarrassed.
This sand table at the Shukou frontier fortress was personally commissioned by Zhao Hong, who made it together with his brother Cao Youwen. He has learned how to make sand tables, and brother Cao Youwen is a local in Shukou and is familiar with the terrain. The three of them made the sand table together and complemented each other.
On the side, young Lu Wende was watching several people making sand tables with interest.
"Cao Youwen, what do you think of the terrain and proportions of Dashanguan Pass?"
Yu Jie got busy, her hands full of sand, pointing to the sand table and asked.
Dashan Pass is one of the three passes and five states in the northwest border of Song and Jin Dynasties. Its geographical location is very important.
"Yes, the proportions are good. Hanzhong seems to be a little closer to Mianzhou."
Cao Youwen compared the map and combined it with the impression in his mind, and immediately saw something wrong.
"Cao Youwen, you better be careful."
Yu Jie made a mark and remade the sand inventory in the Hanzhong area.
"Lao Yu, tell me, the principal asked us to make a sand table for the Shukou Frontier Fortress. Isn't it unintentional?"
Cao Youwan asked suspiciously while making the sand table.
Yu Jie and Cao Youwen looked at each other in silence.
As the king of a country, Zhao Hong has big things in his mind and cannot aim at nothing.
"During geography and history classes, the principal mentioned more than once that the wars in the next ten years will be in the northwest. The Shukou border fortress leads to the Yellow River and the Hexi Corridor to the west. We, the Song Dynasty, want to restore the Central Plains, open up territories, and start from Shu. Breaking through the encirclement through mouth is a strategy!”
Lu Wende said it excitedly.
"Lu Wende, what you said makes some sense."
Cao Youwen nodded and said thoughtfully:
"I have been reading "Tatar Policy" recently, and I always feel that there will be a war in Shukou. The principal transferred Zheng Sun, the envoy of Zhizhi, back to Sichuan, and then transferred Cui Yu back to this small sand table in Shukou. The principal seemed to be It’s intentional.”
As soon as Zhao Hong ascended the throne, he captured Zheng Sun, the Sichuan envoy appointed by Shi Miyuan when he was in power. You know, Zheng Sun served as the envoy of Sichuan for only half a year, and he was driven back to Lin'an City without even getting hot.
Cui Yu, the former Sichuan envoy, was transferred back to Sichuan just half a year after leaving office and resumed his old career. Considering Choi Yoo's outstanding political achievements, this is definitely not a coincidence.
"The Tatar army will use troops against Xixia after returning from the Western Expedition. Once the Tatar army goes south and destroys Xixia, it will inevitably follow the attack on Jin. Once it enters the Jin realm, it will inevitably conflict with our army. Will the principal defend at Shukou? , let’s wait and see.”
Yu Jie nodded and agreed with Cao Youwen's opinion.
"It is said that the Tatar army is invincible, invincible, and invincible. Once we, the Song Dynasty, fight against the Tatar army, I don't know what the outcome will be?"
Cao Youwan said with a pout.
Shukou is his hometown. If the Mongolian cavalry attacks, I wonder if the Song army can withstand it?
"The principal's "Tatar Policy" said that the Tatar army must be a serious problem for us in the Song Dynasty. If our army has enough firearms, it should not be a problem to hold on. But our army lacks cavalry and is much less maneuverable than the Mongolian cavalry. The situation of the war is difficult to estimate.”
Lu Wende shook his head and was not optimistic about the future war situation.
Everyone nodded. Even if the frontier troops of the Song Dynasty had firearms and fought against the Tatar cavalry that came and went like the wind, even if they won a partial victory, it would be difficult to expand the results.
"Don't talk about side stories. I heard that there are many obstacles to the implementation of the New Deal on Jiangnan East Road. The principal has been frowning all day long. Have you all seen it?"
Cao Youwan continued, Yu Jie nodded and agreed:
"Today I met Mr. Tian, an instructor. He said privately that during the land clearing in various places in the economic circle, dozens of people were killed, government offices were burned down, and the New Deal was stopped. The principal was angry, and he didn't know if the New Deal was still there. Can it be implemented?"
Yu Jie's words made everyone shocked and angry, but also felt heavy in their hearts.
Zhao Hong, the emperor's principal, was meticulous about everything, worked hard, and wanted to work hard to improve things, but he was really worried.
"These corrupt officials and powerful officials are all bastards and deserve to die!"
Lu Wende's face turned livid and he cursed bitterly.
He comes from the folk, suffers deeply from it, and feels it most deeply.
"Don't worry, the principal can establish a martial arts hall, smelt fine iron, make firearms, and destroy Shi Miyuan. He won't just give up halfway. Let's wait and see."
After Cao Youwen finished speaking, he pointed to the sand table.
"Lu Wende, look at the map, are you doing the right thing here?"
When Yu Jie and others returned to the dormitory, they all fell asleep with worries.
After breakfast, a harsh whistle sounded in the martial arts hall, breaking the silence of the campus. Countless students pricked up their ears and were confused.
"Except for the medical department, all other scientific students will wear armor and weapons and gather on the teaching field within the time of burning incense!"
The officers shouted loudly, and the cadets, wearing armor, equipped with swords, guns, shields and arrows, left the dormitory and assembled on the training ground.
"Meng Gong and Yu Jie lead the team and go straight to Ningguo County!"
Tian Yi glanced at all the students and waved.
"Brothers Cao Youwen and Cao Youwan are staying behind. Everyone, let's go!"
Thousands of students filed out of the gate of Jinling Martial Arts Lecture Hall. Cao Youwen looked at the backs of everyone leaving, frowning in deep thought.
"Brother, where are you going?"
Cao Youwan asked in surprise.
"The reason why the entire martial arts hall is mobilized must be related to the obstruction in the implementation of the New Deal. Now, something big is going to happen."
Cao Youwen looked calm and thoughtful.
"Why are we left behind in such a big matter?"
Cao You stamped his feet anxiously.
"Let's go back."
Cao Youwen turned around and walked back.
"Brother, what are you doing back? Are you going to sleep?"
"Sleep and dream in broad daylight. Go to the surveying and mapping room. If you have free time today, continue to finish the sand table."
Cao Youwen looked at the empty teaching ground and turned his eyes in the direction of the Humble Administrator's Garden.
The emperor's wrath laid down millions of corpses, bleeding and drifting in the river. Principal Long Yan is now furious, and the consequences will be serious!
