In July of the second year of Yanxi, the most lively thing in Chang'an was the affairs related to the academy.
After July, the matter at the academy was a foregone conclusion. Although many people were still discussing it in Chang'an City, it was only the aftermath of the impact.
This time, the imperial examination was fully promoted, and it was not that no one opposed it.
On the contrary, many people strongly opposed it.
It is a pity that when discussing Taoism in the court, the emperor could not be persuaded.
More importantly, none of the big shots in the court stood up to object.
An unknown Feng Duhu said:
From the emperor's brother-in-law, to the aristocratic families whose mouths are stuffed with wool and cotton, to the humble families who are eager to see through it, and to the barbarians who are eager to be enlightened, they are all my people.
Why do you, the mediocre, mediocre little rookies like you who are neither good nor bad, fight with me?
Zhu Ju, Sun Quan's son-in-law, who came to Chang'an from Wu to study, was responsible for similar tasks to Ma Dazui, who was far away in Jianye.
Of course, there was no Xinghan Hui behind Zhu Zhi, so there were naturally no huge resources for him to squander.
Therefore, he definitely cannot be as comfortable as a fish in water in Chang'an like Ma Dazui.
However, such a big event as sending students to counties and villages has caused such a fuss that it is difficult not to hear about it.
Zhu Ju was favored by Sun Quan, so naturally he would not discuss whether this matter was appropriate or not against the ancestral system of the Han Dynasty like those on Chang'an Avenue.
What he saw was the terrifying ability of the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, or the Ji Han court, to control the aristocratic families in the Han Dynasty.
If this kind of thing were to be brought to Da Wu, I am afraid that someone would start raising troops to clear the emperor's side, and it would also receive responses from all over the country.
Even if they don't respond one after another, at least a considerable number of people will respond.
As for Ji Han, there are a lot of discussions between the government and the public now, and they can't agree on one thing.
Or it could be like students from all over the country getting drunk in a wine shop, scolding an unknown Feng Duhu for his clever words, scolding all the princes in the DPRK for having a vegetarian meal, etc.
It's all trivial.
If it were just Shu, or if Liangzhou was added, Ji Han would be able to have such control, which would be barely acceptable.
But what about Yongzhou and Hedong?
How long did it take Ji Han to get these places?
It's surprising that the aristocratic families in these places can cooperate so well.
This made Zhu Ju feel shocked, but also couldn't help but feel a sense of deep fear.
Thinking about those guys who came from Dawu to learn how to fight on horseback, Zhu Ju felt a little heavy in his heart.
"Somebody come!"
"General?"
"Pass my military order, and tomorrow the entire trainee battalion will be dispatched to practice breaking out."
The rules of the Tiger Cavalry Army are that after new recruits enter the camp, they must work as a groom and handyman for half a year before they are qualified to ride a real horse for practice.
As a unique branch of the Han Dynasty, even if you are proficient in riding skills, there is no way to adapt to the Tiger Cavalry Army's horses, armor, and weapons without going through various exercises.
After a year, you can independently own war horses, complete armor and weapons.
Even as an exchange student from Wu State, which has great political significance, he cannot break this rule - at most he can only let a little water out.
For example, after the Wu Guo trainee camp has reported its route and destination, Zhu Ju can personally lead them to a certain place for training.
Of course, the instructors responsible for teaching them naturally have to be with them.
"Sir, if you go out to practice in such a hot weather, I'm afraid..."
Although it is an exchange study, Ji Han is not responsible for the students' school supplies.
You have to pay for the horses, armor, and weapons in the trainee camp.
Of course, you can also rent it.
But no matter what, paying money is inevitable.
It's easy to go out for training in the hottest time, but what if something goes wrong with the horse?
"Shut up!" Zhu Ju shouted sternly, "This is an important place in the army. Why don't you call me general?"
Zhu Xiong did not expect that his words of advice would trigger such a big reaction from his master.
What he didn't expect was that the adult shouted next:
"Knowingly, go down and get ten military sticks yourself!"
Zhu Xiong opened his mouth subconsciously, but when he saw the expression on the adult's face, he immediately closed his mouth and turned around.
Zhu Ju's face had turned gloomy.
According to his opinion, Ji Han used the land of two states to swallow up the land of two states. Not only did he swallow the snake and the elephant, he should at least be full of food.
I'm afraid it won't be possible to truly digest the land of Yongzong and the two states within ten or eight years - this is the shortest period envisaged by Zhu Ju.
After Ji Han captured the entire Liangzhou, he used his raw materials to subdue the powerful rightists in Liangzhou. It would take six to seventy-eight years before he could send troops to Guanzhong with the strength of the whole country.
Isn't Yongbin's two prefectures much bigger than Liangzhou?
What's more important is that Guanzhong is a golden pond, and the Emperors of Qin and Han Dynasty all relied on it to achieve their great achievements.
Not to mention the bitter cold places like Liangzhou, even Yizhou cannot compare with it.
How can we not manage such a God-given land with care?
Ten or eight years is still less, but twenty or thirty years is still worth it.
Who would have thought that the cruelty of reality would directly break Zhu Ju's fantasy.
This made him, who was already feeling pressed for time, even more impatient.
Judging from the current situation, Ji Han might not have enough energy to head east before long.
If Wu could not take the opportunity to go north to carve up the Wei State at that time, accumulate strength, and stand side by side with Ji Han, in the end he would be destroyed by Ji Han.
That is really "the whole country can conquer the world for others"...
I'm afraid it won't leave a funny name in history?
Therefore, as the most important force for Wu to break through Wei's defense line and move northward, it must form an army as soon as possible.
In Guanzhong in July, the fierce sun shone on the earth, scorching the ground, and the leaves and weeds hung witheringly.
Occasionally, the hot wind blew up, causing the ground to evaporate into a trembling air current. From a distance, it seemed to be moving, distorting everything that fell into the eyes.
North of the Wei River, although the government has begun to organize manpower to try small-scale reclamation.
But after all, it was just an attempt to see how many years it would take for the reclaimed fields to be able to grow wheat and millet.
Because before the Zheng Guo Canal is completely restored, it is impossible to restore the size of the fields to the size of the Pre-Han Dynasty.
This leads to the fact that the further north you go, the more desolate and sparsely populated it becomes.
As for the official road leading from Chang'an to Qiaoshan and connecting the north of Qiaoshan, basically only the Qinzhi Road built hundreds of years ago on the order of the hand-made madman can still be used normally.
At this time, on the Qinzhi Road, a group of five hundred people was walking, and they were all dripping with sweat.
"General, we set off before dawn this morning, and we didn't have breakfast. The sun is scorching in the sky, and everyone is very hungry. Why don't we take a rest for now?"
Someone suggested to Zhu Ju.
Zhu Ju looked at the sun, then turned his head, looked at the team behind him, and finally nodded:
"Go down with the order and find a suitable place to camp and rest."
The team immediately burst into cheers.
Zhu Ju sighed. He didn't feel sorry for these soldiers, but for the horses underneath them.
The minimum standard for war horses in the Tiger Cavalry Camp is for one person to ride two mules.
Mules are used to carry armor, weapons and other supplies. One horse is a backup, and they can also be used to ride on the road in an emergency.
As for the most important war horse, apart from charging in front of the battle, it can only be ridden during training.
Compared with Dahan Company, which successfully went public for the third time and continued to acquire rival subsidiaries on a large scale, Wu Guo was basically a poor man at this time.
Although Wu Guo is actually a pretty big company.
But the foundation is still not enough, and unlike Dahan, which has two animal husbandry subsidiaries, it can continuously provide Dahan with war horses - war horses are too expensive.
People like Zhu Ju, who were from an aristocratic family who spent money lavishly, couldn't help but feel distressed about the money and food consumed by the trainee camp.
Half of the 500-person trainee camp are not armored cavalry soldiers, but light cavalry.
Coming out this time can only be regarded as a training exercise. Naturally, the trainee camp cannot be like the wealthy people in Ji Han's Tiger Cavalry Army, with full standards and full equipment.
So it's basically just one horse and one mule with a reduced allocation.
Zhu Ju may not feel sorry for his subordinates, but he must feel sorry for his horses.
After the sun turned westward, it didn't feel so hot anymore, so the team hurried on for a while.
It wasn't until the sun moved to the top of the mountain that they set up camp again.
After one year of training in the Tiger Cavalry Army with strict military disciplines, the probation camp is no longer the casual look it once was.
Even if it is a temporary camp, trenches should be dug and tents set up according to the military requirements.
As night fell, the camp quickly became quiet, and the soldiers who had been tired for a day couldn't wait to rest.
Zhu Ju didn't sleep. He had a charcoal pencil and a notebook in his hand to record some thoughts.
Even if the Tiger Cavalry Army's campus is large enough, it can allow the Armored Cavalry Army to charge back and forth.
But what happens on the battlefield is not just fighting in front of the battlefield.
More, everything behind the formation.
Give the simplest example:
For example, the speed of the two armies' march may be enough to change the outcome on the battlefield.
The marching speed of the armored cavalry with four horses and four mules is definitely different from the marching speed of one horse and one mule.
It’s not like you can get data just by training on the school field.
Although the Han Dynasty has also given out a lot of data, the authenticity still needs to be verified personally.
Moreover, although most of the young men in the training camp were after Zhonglie, they were still young and inexperienced.
I am afraid that it is difficult to compare with the elite tiger and wolf divisions under Feng Duhu.
Therefore, Zhu Ju knew that he could not blindly copy the practices and rules of the Han army.
There still have to be practices and rules that suit Da Wu's actual situation.
What was recorded in the notebook were all his experiences of what he saw, heard, and thought when he was in the Han Dynasty.
After he finished writing down his thoughts about the trainee camp today, he looked back at what he had written before. When he put the notebook away, the moon was already halfway up.
Although it is not yet fifteen, the moon on the twelfth and thirteenth day is still dust-free on a clear summer night, casting a layer of clear light on the earth.
Just when Zhu Ju was about to fall asleep, he heard rapid footsteps outside the tent and someone whispered at the tent door:
"General, there's a situation!"
When Zhu Ju heard this, he immediately lost all sleepiness: "We'll talk about it later when we come in."
The soldiers on duty entered the account and reported:
"General, there is movement outside the camp. There are at least a dozen riders, and there are shouts and shouts. It seems like they are fighting."
"Huh?" Zhu Ju's heart tightened, "Fight?"
A force that can organize dozens of knights to fight at night cannot be underestimated.
Back then, Gan Xingba led hundreds of cavalry, and he was able to rob the camp of tens of thousands of Cao thieves at night, causing chaos.
In this camp of only 500 people, if one person is not guarded, and dozens of riders are really going to rush in, chaos is bound to happen.
"Let the people on duty be prepared. The rest of the people are not allowed to move without receiving military orders. Anyone who violates this rule will be killed!"
Zhu Ju directly ordered, "Come here, put on my armor!"
The camp of 500 people was not large. Under the protection of several personal guards, Zhu Ju came to the edge of the camp and looked out, and saw silhouettes of people not far away.
Under the moonlight, he could even clearly see the weapon reflecting the moonlight.
However, Zhu Ju felt relieved when he saw the situation outside the camp.
After all, he was a man who had led troops into battle, so he knew that attacking the camp under the dim moonlight was not a good choice.
Not to mention that the other party didn't seem to be targeting him, but was trying to surround a man in white.
the reason is simple.
Zhu Ju chose this place to set up camp, which was naturally selected. Even if he attacked by force, this direction was not a good choice.
Because of the terrain, you can have a commanding view from the camp.
"Witch, you can't escape anymore, why don't you just surrender quickly?"
Only a disdainful sneer was heard, and then a clear voice came:
"If the terrain here hadn't changed, do you really think you could catch me?"
The voice was not only clear and clear, but also had an air of arrogance that kept strangers away:
"And don't you think that if you catch up with me, you can do anything to me?"
When Zhu Ju heard this, he secretly felt ashamed. It seemed that he had built a temporary camp and blocked the opponent's way, so he was overtaken.
Think about it, further north along the Qinzhi Road is Qiaoshan.
If you enter Qiaoshan, a densely forested area, it will be difficult to chase people.
"Witch, you are just alone. Now you are surrounded by us. Do you still want to escape?"
"I advise you to hand over your belongings obediently and come back with us..."
Before he finished speaking, someone shouted and interrupted him:
"Shut up!"
The clear voice had a hint of mockery, and even raised its volume, as if it was deliberately saying for everyone to hear:
"What? Feng Mingwen is also the Central Protector after all. Is he still a secretive person who doesn't even dare to mention his name?"
"Or is it because he is afraid that it will be revealed that he is an abandoned member of my Xiaoyao sect and his reputation in the world will be ruined?"
"Shut up, you witch! Stop slandering the Protector of Zhong..."
"Hahaha," as if hearing some big joke, the clear voice finally let out a mocking laugh:
"The foolish people in the world are nothing more than ants in the eyes of my Xiaoyao sect. A mere outcast can make you treat you like a god just by relying on a few secret books stolen from me. It's ridiculous, ridiculous!"
Feng Mingwen?
Abandoned member of Xiaoyao Sect?
Secret book?
…
Zhu Ju, who was standing in the dark and eavesdropping, was shaken and felt as if he had come into contact with a huge secret.
His name is Feng Mingwen and he happens to be the Protector of the Central Government. There seems to be only one person in the world, right?
Feng Mingwen is a disciple of the Shan family, and his knowledge is profound and unpredictable.
The world only knew that he was a disciple of a secret mountain sect who came out to join the world, but they didn't expect that he was an abandoned disciple?
This this……
At this thought, Zhu Ju's whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"Stop talking nonsense, witch, and quickly hand over the things you stole from the general's mansion."
Although more than a dozen people surrounded the woman in white, they seemed to be extremely wary of each other and did not dare to approach easily. They just kept threatening her.
"Joke! These things are secrets in my sect that are not told. I came out this time just to take these things back to the sect. Why did I steal them?"
"When it comes to stealing, Feng Mingwen is the one who stole the secret of my family, right?"
A secret that is not told?
What could be called an untold secret by these sects?
Zhu Ju suddenly thought of a possibility. It couldn't be the legendary... "Wu'an Jun's Art of War", right?
